Ferno the Fire Dragon: Series 1 Book 1 (Beast Quest)

Product Information

An evil wizard has enchanted the magical beasts of Avantia – only a true hero can free the beasts and stop them from destroying the land.

Ferno flew to the Northern Mountains, landing before the group and allowing them to climb onto his back. While incredibly strong and armed with an armament of sharp teeth and talons, the Beast's main weapon is scorching fire he produces within his body and expels from his mouth, hot enough to incinerate flesh and bone easily. Before he could dislodge Maximus, the Fire Dragon lashed out his tail, forcing the Flame Bird back and knocking Sam off, forcing Epos to recover him. The Tangalans loaded a flaming boulder, which amused Ferno, who promised he would show them fire, before the boulder slammed into his head and knocked him out.

The Fire Dragon took aim and released a jet of flame at the dark wizard, incinerating Malvel and killing him instantly. After crossing over the Forbidden Land, the Fire Dragon opened the portal to Drakonia, appearing over the Lava Sea. Kyrax turned to try and attack Tom, but was intercepted by a jet of flame, with the Fire Dragon forcing him to battle him. The Fire Dragon disguised himself and allowed the knight to begin climbing him, unaware he walking up the Fire Dragon.

Desperately, Ferrok reached for his belt, turning the flames around his body into hard iron spikes, driving Ferno off in pain. The Fire Dragon lives in a cave in the mountain range near the Winding River, the main source of clean water for southern Avantians, with one of the main duties of Ferno being ensuring the river continues to flow to ensure the citizens have enough water to survive. Like the other Good Beasts, Ferno attended Taladon's funeral in spirit, channelling his grief and anguish through his token in Tom's shield as the former Master of the Beasts was taken into the Gallery of Tombs.He released another blast of flame on the water, draining the Evil Beast's power further as the lake shrank.
