There's a magical sword belonging to the king of the forest that evil wizards want. Your descriptions, in the order you gave: It was written and published first, and then revised later to better fit with the prequel books. In which Daystar, Cimorene and Mendanbar's son, is sent off into the forest with his father's sword and no knowledge of his heritage. In which Morwen discovers that the wizards have stolen Mendanbar's sword, which kept them from stealing the Enchanted Forest's magic, and works with Cimorene to retrieve it.

One cover of the first book (you may not have seen this particular cover design, there are others)īlurbs from wikipedia, for the first book, Dealing with Dragons: The first book was originally published in the UK under the title Dragonsbane, so you may remember that title instead.

The books are Dealing with Dragons, Searching for Dragons, Calling on Dragons, and Talking to Dragons. This is The Enchanted Forest Chronicles, by Patricia C. If I think of any other details I'll add them.

I can't remember if there were evil dragons or not, I seem to remember that at least some of them were good (or at least largely neutral). I believe in the first book the mother of the son in the last book runs away from home and becomes something of a maid to a dragon. I read the series circa 1992 (estimated), comparable to the DragonLance series it was geared towards a younger audience (I don't remember any sex/brutal slayings of anyone). The evil mages/witches would melt (but not die) when some spell was cast on them. There was a king (possibly the son's father) who was frozen in a castle during the last book. I read the last book first, in which the son of a woman turned out to be largely one of the main characters in the other books takes an enchanted sword into a forest on a quest to do something.Īt one point in one of the earlier books the group was travelling through a swamp like area to get to a tower where a witch(or mage lived). I'd like to buy it for some of my younger extended family members but I can't remember the name of it. When I was younger I read a series of 3 or 4 books involving largely traditional mages/dragons/enchanted forests.
