Description
A young prince must overcome obstacles to help his clan return to their homeland. The Wong Clan hopes to leave their blighted homeland for a mythical place called Old Land, but first they must pass through the Dragon Path. Young Prince Sing is separated from the clan during an attack by their enemies, the Dragon Clan. And a terrible betrayal by a devious advisor throws the conflict into chaos. With the help of a mystic and his cat-like warrior beast Midnight, Prince Sing must do all he can to save both the Wong Clan and the Dragon Clan from mutual destruction.

ReviewsPraise for The Dragon Path: An American Library Association Best Graphic Novel for Children "Fantasy fans will dive right into this world and clamor for more." -- School Library Journal "A fantastic and engaging story ideal for fantasy-adventure fans that is hopefully one of many." -- Booklist "Themes of betrayal and true identities, with magic woven throughout, create an action-packed adventure. This eclectic world of Chinese culture, fantasy, and nonstop action is worth exploring." -- Kirkus "The art and action in The Dragon Path is absolutely stellar. Young's art shines with lush landscapes and dynamic action scenes." -- POC Culture.com "If you want adventure, humor, magic, and family in one spot, you probably want to read this." -- Cannonballread.com "Young is simply an incredible artist, whose expressive and dynamic work is filled with so many lines of details that it seems like it was etched and carved out of woodwork." -- Multiversity Comics "If I grew up with a graphic novel full of dragons, mystical magic orbs, and a giant-sized cat with a unicorn horn shooting blasts of energy, I would have gotten totally lost in this world. I would have voraciously read and re-read the pages of The Dragon Path over and over again." -- Ernie Estrella, SyFy.com
