From publisher blurb:
“'This was a lot easier when the dragon was just a tennis ball on a stick,' muttered Sir Ian as he drew Excalibur from its scabbard.”
Long ago, knights and dames of the realm travelled far and wide, slaying dragons and other mythical beasts. Now the world has forgotten about such creatures (believing them to be little more than fiction) and those receiving knighthoods or damehoods are respected actors, sports personalities and philanthropists... not great warriors.
The world may have forgotten about the terrors of the Dark Ages but there are those who have not. For centuries, a secret society has kept a careful eye on those who are knighted, for this mysterious organisation knows two great and terrible secrets:
That dragons and other monsters are very much real and beneath the earth they still slumber, waiting to return;
An ancient prophecy states that only a “true knight or dame” has the power to slay these beasts
The day they have feared has arrived. Now the land, seas and skies are filled with creatures of legend and those with the power to stop them are... unprepared (to say the least).
The King has called on you to fight. Will you answer His Majesty’s call?
