Publisher's Synopsis
After his father's death, Prince Lir is tricked into embarking on a perilous quest to rescue a maiden from a dragon. The studious young prince is no warrior, but he uses his brains to make himself indispensable to the ill-tempered dragon. However, neither prince nor dragon has bargained on the dark magic that manipulates them both--and it may be left to the maiden herself to save them all. A clever prince, an unsuspectingly powerful young woman, and an ornery dragon with heart are at the center of this classic in the making.
