Now they have become Dragon Riders for Ping and Yu, Chinese King Dragons known as Lung-Wang, Marc and Ethan's life is suddenly exciting. The King Dragons are mischievous, fun loving and very tricky unless you know how they think. And Marc and Ethan are only just learning about King Dragon thinking. The dragons and their riders must save the rest of the Lung-Wang from the clutches of the fearsome Treasure Dragon so the Lung-Wang can do their job and control the weather to stop all the drought and flood. In Tiger Magic, the second book in the series, the boys and their dragons put the team together to battle the Treasure Dragon. They need to persuade St George's Dragon to help them. They also need to show the fierce tigers they are good dragon riders with magic and skills to succeed. In order to do this the boys and their dragons need to cross stinky, slimy swamps on a horrible crocodile's head and do battle with the tigers in a pretty wood. Impetuous, fun loving and full of energy and magic, the young riders and their dragons keep getting into trouble and saving themselves as they beat the odds. Yes, the adventures are exciting and sometimes scary - occasionally very scary. But the dragons are fun loving (underneath that naughty exterior) and very caring and so are the boys. More importantly, this story is about how Marc and Ethan and their two King Dragons grow to love one another and learn they will do anything to help each other out in tricky situations. It is also about the fact that persistence very often pays when things get tough. This second book is a great follow up to Pearl Magic.
