"An AMAZING book with lots of twists and turns!" -- Madeline Bryant, age 11 "I CAN'T WAIT FOR THE NEXT ONE! Hannah Grace is INSPIRATIONAL and DETERMINED." -- Isabelle C. Age 10. "I LOVE THIS BOOK. It is AWESOME!!!!!!!" - Anna K. age 9 "THRILLING! Like The DaVinci Code for kids. Abounds with humor and heart-centered wisdom." -- Matthew Shepatin, author, Marathon Man . "THIS WAS ONE EXCITING STORY! The action never let up, the lessons were never dry, the morals were a good reminder for all, and while aimed atthe Middle Grade crowd, I really feel the fan base extends much further than those boundaries. "WHEN I FINISHED THE THIS BOOK I WAS SO READY FOR THE NEXT INSTALLMENT." -- Gina R. Satisfaction for Insatiable Readers blog. "HIGHLY RECOMMENDED...This is a series pleading to be transferred to the screen...Ziegler is a major talent." - Grady Harp, Amazon Hall of Fame, Top 100 Reviewer. "This was one EXCITING story! The action never let up, the lessons were never dry, the morals were a good reminder for all, and while aimed at the Middle Grade crowd, I really feel the fan base extends much further than those boundaries. It reminds me in a sense of a Disney movie. It appeals to the kiddos because of the "bright and shiny", but the inside jokes throughout make it a hit with the over toddler crowd. The author spins a tale just out there enough to be considered fantasy, and yet believable enough to make you want to investigate those literary lion statues outside the New York Public Library. (Seriously! I wonder if there really could be a passage to...) In the end, I gotta say it was a great read! I loved the puns and the wit (The Bowling League of Big Evil...seriously?! Hahaha! ^-^), the creativity and imagination employed (our little "master" who helps the kiddos uncover their potential). Now that I've returned to the real world (*grumble grumble*), I will keep a watchful eye on the horizon for my next chance to go on a grand adventure with Hannah Grace and whomever might come her way...Just take it from one bookworm to another, this is a perfect addition to your wish list this holiday season." - Gina R.

And also The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy . It was a thrill to write this book. I can't wait to see what happens to Hannah and her pals in the next ones. BTW, after I published my book I discovered there's another book series on Amazon named "Hannah Grace" and another called "Dragon Codex." Oy . Neither are any relation as far as I know. I have no idea if the other dragons are buddies or if the other Hannah Grace can hop dimensions and fight interdimensional demons like mine can, but she's welcome to try. When eleven-year-old Hannah Grace wakes from a dream about an ancient book, she has no idea her life is about to change in some amazing ways. Hannah thinks she's just a normal girl, so when she tells her father, a decorated member of the NYPD, about her dream, she's more than a little shocked when he recruits her to find the book she dreamed about, the mysterious and powerful Dragon Codex. Now Hannah is thrown into a world of astounding magic and incredible danger where she
