In search of Merlin’s Treasure

The final part of my Dragon trilogy , Dragon Red, came out on Wednesday – 1st March 2017 – St David’s Day.

The day before I went to make a video about Dinas Emrys, which is a hill in north wales near Beddgellert which is renowned as Merlin’s Castle and where the Red Dragon of Wales is reputed to be imprisoned and where Merlin’s Gold is waiting to be claimed by a fatherless child!

Dinas Emrys is where the trilogy begins and ends. When I was planning and writing there books, I gained such a visual impression from my researches, that I decided not to visit until I’d finished the series. This week was my first chance… but it was pouring with rain.

I’ll be going there again. on the Eve of May Day to film again. more successful this time I hope. Look out for the next dinars embryos video soon!

You can get the books at Amazon here in the UK

This video follows up the video about rough sketches in the video that you can see below. In this video I’m drawing the final artwork for Dragon Red on to Seawhite Heavy Cartridge paper and then painting it with Winsor and Newton Neutral Tint watercolour (link below) to create a greyscale image for my black and white book, Dragon Red, which is the final part of my Dragon Trilogy.

The Dragon Gold Trilogy

Dragon Red, the final part of the Dragon Gold Trilogy is at the printers and is due out on the 1st March – not long to go!

Firefly Press have made this great poster for it for the Year of Legends 2017 – a wonderful Promotion that is underway in Wales this year.

If you have read the first two books, then you will know that Ryan’s dad was on the prowl at the end of Dragon White.

What new damage can he do and how is it all linked to Harri and Tân’s destiny?

Will the two dragons, Tân & Draca face each other again or will the North Wales Police Force put an end to things first?

It’s so exciting… and I know what happens!
