One step closer to stopping the Shadow Dragon from blanketing the world with its sky-shadow, Drake and the rest of the Dragon Masters must learn how to play the Star Flute in order to summon the Star Dragon.

Told from more than a dozen alternating viewpoints, this spellbinding collection of stories follows eighteen students at the Galileo Academy for the Extraordinary as they each try to solve the murder of a professor, discovering that magic doesn't always play by the rules.

To prevent the Shadow Dragon from plunging the world into sky-shadow the Drake and Darma seek out a Light Dragon named Lysa, but they learn from her dragon master they need to summon a Star Dragon with a star flute, hidden within a dangerous labyrinth.

A bear reluctantly becomes a wizard when a magic wand crashes into his head, and he uses his powers to protect the forest animals from an evil wolf.

While trying to rescue their friend Griffith, Drake and Rori team up with a boy named Llew and try to gain the trust of a Crystal Dragon.

Chise becomes a dragon and swims through the earth's ley lines to reach the Sargant family house, Elias and the others in tow. Together they make their way to Philomela, but she's too corrupted by the Testament to hear their words. To save her, Chise must delve into Philomela's inner world. What does she find there? "The people who want to help can reach out their hands."

Gumluck, a young, naíve wizard, does his best to help the local townspeople (and a small friendly ghost) with his sometimes critical raven sidekick, Helvetica.

Alayiakal, who will one day be known by many names--not all of them flattering--has to climb the ranks of Cyador's Mirror Lancers, fighting against unforeseen weapons and ancient technology. Alayiakal, however, has secrets of his own to protect: his ties to the Great Forest and his magus abilities. He must silently pretend to be a conventional soldier favored by fate--until that very same fate forces him to choose.

Philomela finally stops clasping her hands in passive prayer, and instead reaches them out for help. Meanwhile, Lizbeth gives in to blind obsession, merging with the forbidden Testament. Then a third, unexpected party joins the fray--a curse designed to kill a mother. All actors are in place on a chaotic stage, and when the goddess Morrígan finally makes her entrance, the story of one fraught family comes to an end.
