black dog books tells me that Garden of the Purple Dragon is also due to be published in France (Bayard Editions Jeunesse), Spain (Ediciones B), Germany (Cecile Dressler), Denmark (Bonnier Carlsen), Slovenia (Ucila International). I haven’t got any publication dates for those.
Can’t wait to see those editions. It’s exciting seeing my books in other languages…and often with entirely new covers.

is there a 3rd book of the dragon keeper and when will it be published in melbourne i’m dying to read it i loved the dragon keeper and garden of the purple dragon.
Renee,
Yes there will be a third Dragonkeeper book. It will be published in Australia sometime nextyear.
I have written a post about it called DK3.
Carole
I have read the first and second Dragon Keeper Books and can’t wait to read the third do you know when it will be coming out in shops in Sydney?
Emily,
Sorry I don’t know when the next book will be in the shops. I haven’t finished writing it yet! I hope it will be May but it might be September. If you keep an eye on my blog, I’ll put updates when I know what’s happening.
I love your books, they are great. Out of the hundreds of dragon storys, yours are the best!!
Strangly, none of the books i read ever have twin dragons! Will this happen in a book? I’ve had the idea for ages but I’ve never seen it in books.
Rebecca,
Thanks for your comments.
It sounds like the twins idea should be your dragon story.
I have read the first two Dragon Keeper books and I love them! Can’t wait for the third book to come out! Would you like to come to Singapore one day? The chilli crab here is great!
Dominique,
Glad you liked the books. I’ve never been to Singapore, I’d love to come one day. I don’t think I have a lot of readers there though. The chilli crab sounds good!
Really! Is there a thurd book for dragonkeeper??!!! I can’t wait! When will it be publish? I can’t wait! I wonder what the end would be like
An,
Yep, I am working on the third book right now. It will be published in Australia in May, I think.
I live in England and loved Dragon Keeper. When is the Garden of the Purple Dragon due to be released in the UK? Can a copy be ordered and sent to me now, if so how much would it cost as I cant wait much longer.
Thanks
Robbie
Robbie,
Glad you liked the book.
Garden of PD will be out in UK in February. You could buy a copy of the Australian edition on the internet, but I’m sure that will work out much more expensive. Thanks for your enthusiasm.
i loved the first book and i read it in a day and was very displeased with myself as i couldn’t wait for it to come out in England in february so i waited until march instead and i am reading it very slowly this time. you are a brilliant writer are you going to write any more books about dragons????????????
thanks
sarah
dragons are cool
ya there will be a third book
Sarah,
Glad you enjoyed the books. Dragon Moon, the third and final Dragon Keeper book, will be out in UK early next year.
At the moment, I am writing a dragon encyclopedia which will contain all my favourite dragons from mythology around the world.
