This tale is a fast moving action adventure with interwoven sub plots set in an ancient world of heroes and magic. The book has over 92,000 words contained in 33 action packed chapters.
The hero is Bregar a young adventurer with a price on his head who decides it might be safer to camp out in the wilderness for a few weeks to avoid any trouble with bounty hunters. However he's never far from trouble and a local wizard decides Bregar is just the man to rescue his daughter Emerald who's been kidnapped by orcs. But she's far from the normal damsel in distress.
Add in a clan of people threatened with extinction, scheming dwarves, a bloodthirsty ogre, angry orcs, goblins and other monsters, including a malevolent queen spider and a vengeful dragon, and the young warrior has his hands full.
Still Bregar never worries for long, with his lucky stone and sharp sword he can sort most things out. Especially with a bit of help from Emerald, and a few others such as the reluctant Weasel; the half orc runt, who's not what he seems.
Meanwhile Emerald's father sets out to defeat the demon possessed sorcerer who wants to use Emerald as bait to ensnare him, and he learns some valuable lessons on the journey when thing turn out different to what he might have expected.
Finally Baldric the renowned bard unwittingly adds to Bregar's problems by penning an ode of his heroic adventures. The trouble is, tales involving a dragon can cause unscrupulous thugs to ask unpleasant questions regarding the dragon horde. And with snake worshipping assassins also on his trail Bregar's adventures are far from over.
