About

Down deep in ancient tunnels carved by dwarven hands, past the piles of treasure, the ancient magical artifacts from races long dead, there is a library. Shelves and shelves of books, scrolls, even a few stone tablets, a vast collection worthy of a Dragon Lord. Who knows what timeless knowledge hides there for his slitted pupils only? Well, his secretary has an idea or two. She’s pulled a few off the shelves for you, at his request. We’re interested in fantasy, urban fantasy, dark fantasy, fairy tales, parodies, Just So Stories, and, if your imagination can handle it, a techno-action thriller which has disposed of James Bond and replaced him with someone far more stylish and far more lizardy. All we ask is that a dragon plays a major role. We do not care if there are a million dragons or one dragon, nor do we care if the dragons are heroes or villains (or simply too fabulous to take sides). We do not care if dragons are the protagonist or an influential side character. Your dragons may be adorable imps or horrible beasts. After all, what’s more terrifying than a dragon?
