When Eric and his friends finally arrive back from the imaginary realm of Droon, they find that Gethwing, the moon dragon, has taken most of their town’s adults—including their parents—into his grasp. The dragon is hunting for a magical object that will grant him greater power. With the Rainbow Stairs restored, the children’s first challenge is easy; the real battle begins as Gethwing wreaks havoc in the upper world.
