In an effort to rebuild their wrecked ship, the crew of the Quin Zaza beseech the aid of Brno, heir to a major trading company, and his fiancée, Liriope. In exchange for the crew’s help in solving a recent string of dragon fallings, they are invited to a party to celebrate the launching of Brno’s newly renovated ship. Everything is going great…until Vannie sees a peculiar sight at the party and does something that baffles everyone! In the wake of her actions, the Quin Zaza is faced with yet another dilemma!
Drifting through the skies, the Quin Zaza anchors at one of the world's largest hubs, Harley. There, Mika reunites with an old friend, Cujo. Though they used be draking partners once upon a time, the two bitterly parted ways after a certain incident drove a wedge between them. After a long night of reminiscing, Cujo enlists Mika to help him take down a dragon...the famous "Ol' Harpoon" Cujo failed to finish off three years ago. And so, the old duo take to the skies for one last catch!
During their stay at the bustling trade town of Majuro, the crew of the Quin Zaza catches wind about an elusive dragon dwelling within the Tian Shan Maze whose meat is said to deliver the diner directly to paradise. Meanwhile, Captain Kurga of the slayer vessel, the Plana Grava, has been contracted by the city to fell the very same dragon in the effort of air route reclamation. To catch and savor, or to kill and let rot. When the two ships clash over the head of one dragon, a dogfight ensues so intense, it shakes the very heavens!
Continuing her journey through the skies, the Quin Zaza soon collides with a luxury airliner, leaving her grounded. Needless to say, the crew can barely afford to stay aloft, let alone pay for repairs. Just when it looks like the Quin Zaza might have to close up shop, they hear a rumor about a "shipeater" that's been gobbling up ships left and right...as well as the generous bounty on its head. Well? What are we waiting for?!
Take to the skies with the scrappy crew of the airship Quin Zaza, as they hunt the fantastical giants that rule their world... DRAGONS! OCCUPATIONAL HAZARDS As the airship Quin Zaza continues her never-ending voyage, the young draker Takita's days are filled with firsts. After her first chance to help butcher their latest catch, an excursion with Mika gives her the opportunity to learn more about the history of humanity's relationship with dragons. But what was supposed to be a simple stop turns complicated after a run-in with another draking crew, whose sloppy technique leads to disaster...
In a shocking turn of events, just as the dogfight between the Quin Zaza and the Plana Grava is nearly decided, the very same dragon that once felled the previous iteration of the Quin Zaza descends upon the valley with tempestuous fury, devastating everything in its path. In the wake of the storm, the crew sends out an S.O.S. to the only man who can help: a certain trade tycoon with a penchant for rare dragons. Meanwhile, Vanny's mysterious past is revealed at last!
Adrift in search of more profit and tasty morsels, the Quin Zaza touches down in the bustling commercial town of Majuro. There, Mika has a run-in with Captain Kurga, head of the infamous "Slayers". Unlike the Quin Zaza, the Slayers are hired killers who hunt down dragons by any means necessary, no matter how cruel or vicious. Mika and Kurga... When the two men with opposite ideologies come head to head, skies know what'll happen!
Take to the skies with the scrappy crew of the airship Quin Zaza, as they hunt the fantastical giants that rule their world... DRAGONS! The daily routine aboard an airborne draking vessel springs to vivid life in this exquisitely crafted tale in the tradition of the lush, transporting fantasy of Hayao Miyazaki. Part travelogue, part imaginary cookbook, and part otherworldly slice of life, Drifting Dragons tells the stories of the Quin Zaza and the colorful band of misfits that makes up her crew.
Arthur turned and strode toward us. He was magnificent, and I will never forget that, in that moment, I first loved him. And I believe--had I known what the future held for us: all the trouble, torment, battle, and grief of our lives--I still believe that I would have yielded my heart into his keeping as I did then . . . In a sweeping epic of the imagination, Alice Borchardt enters the wondrous realm of Arthurian legend and makes it her own. The Dragon Queen is the first volume in a trilogy of novels that boldly re-imagines Camelot--and casts Guinevere as a shrewd, strong-willed, magical warrior queen. Born into a world of terrible strife, where war is constant and weapons are never far from the hands of men or women, Guinevere, daughter of a mighty pagan queen, is a threat to her people and a prize to the dreaded sorcerer Merlin. Sent into hiding, she grows up under the protection of a shapeshifting man-wolf and an ornery Druid. But even on the remote coast of Scotland, where dragons feed and watch over her, she is not safe from the all-seeing High Druid Merlin. He knows the young beauty's destiny, and he will stop at nothing to prevent what has been foretold. For if Guinevere becomes Queen and Arthur, King, they will bring a peace to the land that will leave the power-hungry Merlin a shriveled magician in a weary cloak. Yet Guinevere possesses power of her own--dazzling power to rival even that of Merlin. Summoned from her home by forces she cannot fathom, she travels from the Underworld to an Otherworld of the Past, at each step calling on ancient powers to aid her way. When young Guinevere proves her mettle to an embarrassed Merlin, even her faithful dragon protectors cannot prevent the evil that the sorcerer rains down. Seeking revenge, Merlin banishes Arthur to a world from which the only escape is death. Now Guinevere must face Merlin's wrath without him--and prove that she is worthy of being Arthur's Queen. From the glass-roofed Great Hall at Tintigal to the lush garden forts of Wales, Alice Borchardt details the travels of Guinevere in a rich fabric of prose. The Dragon Queen is a novel of great emotional depth, timeless romance, and soul-stirring adventure.

The Iron Dragon's Daughter by Michael Swanwick Pdf
A New York Times Notable Book: “Combining cyberpunk’s grit with dystopic fantasy, this iconoclastic hybrid is a standout piece of storytelling” (Library Journal). Jane is trapped as a changeling in an industrialized Faerie ruled by aristocratic high elves and populated by ogres, dwarves, night-gaunts, and hags. She is the only human in a factory where underage forced labor builds cybernetic, magical dragons that are weaponized and sent off to war. When the damaged dragon Melanchthon tempts Jane with promises of freedom, the stage is set for a daring escape that will shake the foundations of existence. Combining alchemy and technology, a coming-of-age story like no other, The Iron Dragon’s Daughter takes place against a dystopic mindscape of dark challenges and class struggles that force Jane to make costly decisions at every turn. A finalist for the Arthur C. Clarke Award, the World Fantasy Award for Best Novel, and the 1994 Locus Award, The Iron Dragon’s Daughter a is one-of-a-kind melding of grimdark fantasy and cyberpunk grit from the Nebula Award–winning author of Stations of the Tide. It engages the reader in a nihilistic world in which nothing is as it seems and everything comes at a steep and often horrific price.
