Story Summary

On her fifteenth birthday Claire inherits her grandmother's toy dragon, Roddy.

And even more surprising, she learns that Roddy has been guarding the women of her family for 2000 years and Roddy is now her personal guardian, not to mention tour guide, offering her breakfast with a centaur - in Ireland!
