- Synopsis
- Dragon Champion is a 370 page conventional fantasy novel,first published in 2005 and written by the award winning E. E. Knight, author of the Vampire Earth series. This work is the first book of a new series entitled The Age of Fire. Roc's summary reads as follows: "Why won't I grow scales?" "Grays are different, my son. It means you must be careful: your skin will be pierced more easily. But on the other side, having no hunger for gems and gold will allow you to live in the Upper World and far from men if you wish. High in the mountains, deep in the safety of a cave, a brood of dragons is born. The four young ones are among the last of a dying breed-the final hope for dragons' survival. But hope shatters when a murderous group of slave-trading dwarves breaks into the cave, leaving death and destruction in its wake.... Only young Auron, a rare scaleless gray dragon, manages to escape. Armed with nothing save wit, claws, and a boundless determination to survive, he seeks his kind. But to find other dragons-or, at least, discover who's killing them off-Auron will have to search a world of mercenary elves, vicious humans, and dangers of all kinds. Winning allies in the strangest places-and finding himself along the way-Auron embarks on the journey of a thousandyear lifetime.... PRAISE FOR E. E. KNIGHT'S VAMPIRE EARTH SERIES "Simultaneously hip and classic.. .a tale of human courage [and] heroism."
