INTERMEDIATE FICTION
Bruchac, Joseph

Dragon Castle

(2) 4-6 Rashko, son of a goodhearted but dim king and queen, finds responsibility heavy on his shoulders when his parents are enchanted away to the Silver Lands. Alternating chapters tell the story of Rashko's ancestor Pavol, who defeated a dragon and initiated peace. Gypsy proverbs and frequent interjections add a Slovak flavor to the mountain setting, while humor enlivens the tone.
