For some strange reason, snow never, ever settles on Rudry Mountain...
Some said it was Magic...
... or perhaps the Mountain was made of Hot Rock...
but the Truth lay somewhere in between...
What’s more, lots of fresh fruit has been mysteriously vanishing from the greenhouses of Rudry village...
Tyler and his Grandpa set out on an unexpected adventure to unravel the secrets of the Mountain and so much more!

This ancient book contains little known facts and secrets about Dragons and all Dragonkind.
You can now watch and listen to Mark storytelling from the first few chapters of The Mystery of the Un-Snowy Mountain and the Great Deep Sleep Miscalculation on our YouTube channel Tomser Cat Storytelling.
I thought the book was amazing. I don't normally like dragons but I thought the book was great and I will definitely read more of your books.

Really fantastic!
Mark Dorey’s book was really fantastic and I wish I was in the book in real life. It was the best story ever cos it had a dragon. I want to read more stories by Mark Dorey. I love the characters in the story. The story was long enough and the story was great!

Loved the story!
I loved the story - fast flowing, with each chapter leaving you waiting to find out what happened next. Disappointment came first as I thought there were more adventures you could have got from the character - then I realised there was more to come. Can't wait - thanks Mark

Grandpa and Tyler go on a quest to find their missing family members and also solve the mystery of the mountain. I like the way this book shows the friendship between Tyler and Rhydian because you wouldn't think a dragon could be friendly. There are lots of funny parts in the story. I liked the part where Tyler thinks the gold in Rhydian's secret cave is gold but it is actually something else!

Rating: 5 Stars
Brilliant book! The main character Rhydian is a dragon who eats fruit and lives in Rudry Mountain, he helps Grandpa and Tyler with their quest to find his family... by doing this they also solve the mystery of the mountain. I found the book easy to read and liked the Dragon Appendix - A brief history of Dragons because it explains the different types of dragons.
Morgan
Rating: 5 Stars
Grandpa and Tyler go on a adventure to find out why snow never settled on Rudry mountain. Tyler discovers a secret entrance and finds Rhydian who is a dragon that eats cooked fruit and together they become great friends and solve the mystery of the mountain. It is a great book about friendship and family. I would recommend this book because it keeps you guessing and make you want to read on.
