Book Description
There’s only one thing scarier than slaying a giant, fire-breathing dragon...slaying the wrong giant, fire-breathing dragon. Sir Terry knows that as a valiant (but solidly middle-class) knight he doesn’t have a chance of winning the beauteous Princess Gloria’s hand in marriage... unless he kills the dragon on the far edge of the kingdom and claims her as his reward. But Prince Charming never had to contend with re-zoning. After Terry defeats the dragon, he discovers he has slain the scourge of the kingdom next door. He’s still won a princess. Unfortunately, she’s nicknamed “Crazy Jane” for her habit of talking to dead animals. Luckily for Terry, Princess Gloria wants to give him another chance, and she arranges for him to save her from a fake kidnapping. Rescuing a damsel who’s not actually in distress ought to be easy, but events soon take a dangerous turn. No matter what, Terry must save Gloria. Because everyone knows that getting stuck with the wrong girl is truly a fate worse than dragons...

Pages : 190
Book Description
"Zale. Gauthier. Varden. For me, these three dynasties have always sounded like something out of an ancient myth or fairy tale from another world. The concept of humans and dragons helping and living in harmony with one another, without fear, is a distant dream only read of, told of secretly, and quietly yearned for. For, you see, I am the new Quelda of the Tynan Dynasty." These words echo the mystery, horror, and romance found within Schulze's young adult fantasy adventure novel. Along with her new husband, Chalom, Crislin must choose to embrace cruel tradition, run from it, or stand against it. The young couple's only hope is to rally the help of the three peaceful dragon dynasties of Sulaimon-but tradition is not on their side, even outside Tynan. Gaining the dragon emperors' aid is not a likely hope. Then again, any hope at all is valued in Tynan. If they are to bring Tynan's tradition to a permanent end, Crisilin and Chalom must brave the three dynasties and the challenges awaiting there. They must convince the dragon emperors to allow them access to the shrines that house the sacred Aria-protective strands of music that can disperse the evil from Tynan and unite the four dynasties of Sulaimon as a whole once again. Their only aid stems from a sprite whose moods are as changeable as her magic, a young minstrel, and a mysterious fox. Despite the odds, defeating the evil of Tynan is possible-but only if they can escape the Wall first.

Book Description
Life in the magical mess of the Detroit Free Zone is never easy. When you're laboring under the curse of a certain prideful, overbearing dragon, it can be down right impossible. My name is Opal Yong-ae, and I'm a Cleaner. At least, I used to be. Thanks to the supernatural bad luck that turns everything I do against me, these days I'm more of a walking disaster. Getting rid of this curse is the only way to get my life back. Unfortunately, dragon magic is every bit as sneaky and deadly as the monsters behind it, and just as hard to beat. But I've never been one to take her doom at face value. Cornered doesn't mean defeated, and in an awakened city that rules herself, dragons are no longer the biggest powers around.

Book Description
Onni just wanted a quiet farmer life. But now a dragon is hosting him as a refugee of war. Living with dragons is quite a challenge: after all, it is the last creature you want to make angry. If you earn their friendship, however, it will become the event of a lifetime, a tale more satisfying than dozens of heroic knights. But this dragon, so apparently uncaring of the human world, may have a closer relation with the war. And for Onni, who was forced out of his village, that could be an even worse challenge to endure... Novellae Draconum is an anthology series of lighthearted short stories, where a human and a dragon get to know each other. Whether for a relaxed evening at home, or a long journey by public transport, let your fantasy take the flight with the help of new scaled friends.

The Dragons of Babel

Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 326
Book Description
A fantasy masterpiece from a five-time Hugo Award winner! A war-dragon of Babel crashes in the idyllic fields of a post-industrialized Faerie and, dragging himself into the nearest village, declares himself king and makes young Will his lieutenant. Nightly, he crawls inside the young fey's brain to get a measure of what his subjects think. Forced out of his village, Will travels with female centaur soldiers, witnesses the violent clash of giants, and acquires a surrogate daughter, Esme, who has no knowledge of the past and may be immortal. Evacuated to the Tower of Babel -- infinitely high, infinitely vulgar, very much like New York City -- Will meets the confidence trickster Nat Whilk. Inside the Dread Tower, Will becomes a hero to the homeless living in the tunnels under the city, rises as an underling to a politician, and meets his one true love–a high-elven woman he dare not aspire to. You've heard of hard SF: This is hard fantasy from a master of the form.
