Synopsis
Sir James Eckert - the brave Dragon Knight - is promised a simple quest. Sir Brian Neville-Smythe asks that Jim accompany him to the Holy Land in search of his betrothed's long-lost father - for only with the old man's consent can Sir Brian wed his beloved. But the Holy Land holds more than any of them bargained for. Full of pirates, sea giants, and the legendary Djinn, this "simple quest" is about to become the most dangerous odyssey the Dragon Knight has ever undertaken. For the Djinn hold more power over good and evil than even the most powerful magicians. Including Sir James himself...
