The Dragon Quartet: Volume One
The Book of Earth
The Book of Water
from back of book: "With the publication of The Book of Earth, Marjorie B. Kellogg launched a unique fantasy series, The Dragon Quartet, a masterwork with an important message not only for our own time but for future generations as well. Almost a decade in its creation, the four volumes take us from the world's elemental beginnings to the far-distant future.
The dragons Earth, Water, Fire, and Air were raised from the elemental energies at time's beginning to create the World. When they finished their task, they were supposed to sleep until World's End. But long before that time the dragons began to wake. The first to wake was Earth. He and his dragon guide, the girl named Erde, found each other in 913 as war ravaged the German principalities. Yet even as they tried to save their world, Earth heard a call he could not ignore--a call that summoned Earth and Erde to the African coast in the year 2013. There they found Earth's sister, the dragon Water, and her guide N'Doch. Together they braved the dangers of both their times, only to find themselves drawn to a future beyond N'Doch's own..."
