THE DRAGON KNIGHT is the newest addition to James A. Owen's bestselling Chronicles of the Imaginarium Geographica series of YA novels.
I haven't added it to the list of add-on rewards, but by popular demand, we HAVE added signed hardcover copies of HERE, THERE BE DRAGONS as a bonus! Just add $25 for each additional book you'd like, and it will show as a credit you can use when you fill out your survey.

This is your last opportunity to get other readers to join in or even boost your pledge for additional signed copies of HERE, THERE BE DRAGONS, complete sets of the Imaginarium Geographica hardcovers, special Art Editions, and even original art! Come help us close this out with a bang! https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1401678214/the-dragon-knight-the-8th-imaginarium-geographica

I have never before offered any originals from my books for sale, and it may not happen again. I was asked about commissions but there was no time in my schedule; so instead I am offering the 14 illustrations that will be used in the actual book. The level of detail and quality will be the same as in all of my previous books, much like the Don Quixote example shown here. I will be posting the pieces here as they are completed, and backers will have first choice based on the order the pledges are received.
More fun rewards at lower pledge levels will also be coming soon (Dragon Christmas ornaments!) which will also be available as add-ons, as well as some REALLY special higher-end rewards. I'm very grateful for all of the support this far – 2 1/2 weeks to go!
