With its faux-leather, gemstone-encrusted cover and timeworn pages, Dr. Ernest Drake's Dragonology: The Complete Book of Dragons, ed. by Dugald A. Steer, "purports to be the facsimile of an 1895 [book]" (according to a publisher's note), and is quite convincing as the long-lost research of 19th-century dragonologist Drake. Presenting a "scientific" study of dragons, the volume examines the different dragon species and their behavior, using fold-out flaps, patches of textured "skin" or "membranes," and sample science-notebook-style labeled drawings. In addition to the clever text and persuasive illustrations by Helen Ward, Douglas Carrel and Wayne Anderson, the interactive book includes an insert on dragon script, a mini-book of dragon riddles and a glass dragon eye bound into the back cover. An afterword concludes, "Cherish all animals. Then one day the world may at last learn to accept the honourable science of dragonology." Copyright 2003 Reed Business Information.
Adventure! Villains! And dragons, dragons, dragons! Brought to us by the creators of the runaway NEW YORK TIMES bestsellers DRAGONOLOGY and THE DRAGONOLOGY HANDBOOK, the Dragonology Chronicles are a series of dragon adventures told by one of Dr. Drake's young students. In Volume 1 of the Chronicles, THE DRAGON'S EYE, Daniel Cook and his sister, Beatrice, spend the summer with their parents' eccentric former tutor, Dr. Ernest Drake. Not only do Daniel and Beatrice begin to study dragonology, but they are also soon caught up in the race to find the stolen Dragon's Eye jewel - which has the power to reflect the true Dragon Master - before it is stolen by evil dragonologist Ignatius Crook. The two must work with Dr. Drake -- as well as many friendly dragons -- to foil Ignatius and recover the Dragon's Eye.

After the success of his first book, he went on to write other, as well as releasing a line of dragon figures and a popular game based on dragonology. Travelling the world by land, sea and air, you have to collect information on the nine different species of dragon in the game, using ancient spells and dragon charms whilst you do so. And having played the game myself, it is fantastic fun. Also helps that I tend to win, but I see that as my love of dragon just shining through.
Quong Po was the first wizard to discover the full usage of dragon eggs as a magical ingredient, especially those of the Chinese Fireball breed, whom he studied up close. Sources from the age describe him as a scholarly man, with many accounts suggested he actually befriended a Fireball. Although this is unlikely, it is true that Po documented many of the intimate characteristics of the breed, remaining the authority on their breeding habits for hundreds of years. Whilst the discipline of dragonology had not yet been fully formed, his extensive study of the beasts means he remains amongst the greated dragonologists known.
Ridgebit was a dragonologist who lived to a very old age, never tiring of telling how he was the first to catch a Peruvian Vipertooth. I'll leave that tale to be retold by the songs, but his most important contribution to the world of dragonology was no doubt his founded of The Romanian Dragon Sanctuary, one of the best equipped reserves in the world for the breeding and conservation of dragons. Ridgebit was actually the first to undertake such a huge concealment project, personally casting many of the long acting enchantments that keep the reservation free from muggles to this day.
