After strained negotiations that include an earthquake or two, the heroes and heroines of Oasis prepare to welcome fairies, dwarves, and other elementals to their land. Though the elementals promise to improve crops, irrigation, and general wellbeing, the Oasans worry about the problems of introducing alien beings to humans who are unfamiliar with their existence.


A rebel faction of fairies and dwarves want more than integration. They call for the annihilation of the human race. They’ve joined with rebellious Earth dragons who fear that the child of Druid, the water dragon, and his mate will be the Rainbow Dragon. Some believe that the Rainbow Dragon will bring peace, but the rebels fear that its birth will signal the end of the world. They steal the egg.


All species of dragons and their cat and human allies unite to devise a plan for disarming the rebels that doesn’t risk the destruction of the egg. They hope to do so without loss of life, but, for the sake of his child, Druid is prepared to die.

About the author

C.M. Barrett

16 books16 followers
As a child, C. M. (Connie) Barrett was enchanted by her grandmother's stories about life in Ireland: the challenges of rural life, the dangers of civil war, and the wee folk who were often invisible but capable of causing much trouble if not treated well. As a result, reality and fantasy merged for her, and it's probably her grandmother's fault that she became a fantasy writer.

Her first book was an illustrated volume of retold Greek and Roman myths that she wrote for her brother. Her first public recognition for writing came in eighth grade, when she was an award for a Good Posture Awareness Day slogan.

Since then, she had many articles, short stories, and reviews published. Sometimes she even got paid.

Because Connie was busy doing other things (working as a typographer, counselor, running a metaphysical store in Greenwich Village) writing took a back seat until early 2011 when self-publishing movement began to take off. Over the next 18 months, she published the first three volumes of A Dragon's Guide to Destiny, a literary novel, and two holistic books.

Most of her books have cats in them. Because she has to spend so much time thinking like one in order to write A Dragon's Guide to Destiny, and to survive in a home run by feline overlords (currently ladies), she sometimes forgets that she's human. The cats encourage this until it's time for a run to the pet store.

Because she continues to be comfortable merging reality and fantasy, she didn't mind the fictional cat, Tara (a main character in the Dragon's Guide Series) dictating a book of advice to cats. Cats in Charge: A Guide to the Training and Education of Humans should be published in April 2013, if the cat stops making corrections.

Connie is also working on the fourth book of A Dragon's Guide to Destiny and a new series, Dystopia in Drag.
