A Man Among Dragons by Carmine Bruzi Pdf

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.

Dragon in Chains by Daniel Fox Pdf

From award-winning author Daniel Fox comes a ravishingly written epic of revolution and romance set in a world where magic is found in stone and in water, in dragons and in men–and in the chains that bind them. Deposed by a vicious usurper, a young emperor flees with his court to the small island of Taishu. There, with a dwindling army, a manipulative mother, and a resentful population–and his only friend a local fishergirl he takes as a concubine–he prepares for his last stand. In the mountains of Taishu, a young miner finds a huge piece of jade, the potent mineral whose ingestion can gift the emperor with superhuman attributes. Setting out to deliver the stone to the embattled emperor, Yu Shan finds himself changing into something more than human, something forbidden. Meanwhile, a great dragon lies beneath the strait that separates Taishu from the mainland, bound by chains that must be constantly renewed by the magic of a community of monks. When the monks are slaughtered by a willful pirate captain, a maimed slave assumes the terrible burden of keeping the dragon subdued. If he should fail, if she should rise free, the result will be slaughter on an unimaginable scale. Now the prisoner beneath the sea and the men and women above it will shatter old bonds of loyalty and love and forge a common destiny from the ruins of an empire.

Christ Among the Dragons by James Emery White Pdf

"Christians today find themselves in new and strange cultural territory. Sometimes we feel that the dangers are overwhelming. Yet in his introduction, James Emery White writes, "Unexplored territory does not always hold the peril of dragons, it can also hold the promise of a new world." In these pages he presents four themes that can take us to the core of faith and bring the unity we need as Christians to find our way: truth, orthodoxy, culture and church."--Jacket.

A Dragon among the Eagles by Adam Alexander Haviaras Pdf

At the peak of Rome's might a dragon is born among eagles, an heir to a line both blessed and cursed by the Gods for ages. In A.D. 197, Emperor Septimius Severus led one of the largest invasion forces in Rome’s history against the Parthian Empire. Among the men of thirty-three legions is Lucius Metellus Anguis, a young man from an ancient Equestrian family. Against the wishes of his conservative father, Lucius is determined to pursue a career in the military and resurrect the glory of his family name on the battlefield rather than the marble of the Senate. However, as in all conflicts, Lucius’ ideals and his faith are challenged as he witnesses the worst in humanity. As the imperial legions fight their way through Mesopotamia to the Parthian capital of Ctesiphon, Lucius discovers the inner strength that may well ensure that this young dragon rises from the ranks of Rome’s eagles. Can a man survive the trials of war unscathed? Do the Gods indeed favour the bold? March to war with Rome’s legions and find out! A Dragon among the Eagles is the first novel in Adam Alexander Haviaras’ ground-breaking Eagles and Dragons historical fantasy series. If you like books by Douglas Jackson, Manda Scott, and David Gemmell, or movies like Gladiator and Pompeii, then you will love this historical series that combines adventure, romance, and the supernatural.
