Synopsis
A rogue dragon. Eccentric royals. A hunter and his band of misfits. The royal seat of Elderoff is in turmoil. A silverflame dragon is roosting over the port, setting ships ablaze and terrorizing fishermen. A ship carrying precious elven artifacts has run aground, soon to be lost to the sea. Larkin has been summoned by the Crown Prince of Tierdor and offered an enormous sum to slay the beast. To eliminate the threat, he enlists the help of a roughneck dwarf and a soft-spoken giant, but things at the Port of Elderoff are much more complicated than they seem. A belligerent crew of seafaring giants, shipwrecked monks, and an enraged dragon stand between Larkin’s band of misfit hunters and the prince’s bounty. The Silverflame Dragon is the prequel to The Elven Blade , though the two can be read in any order.
