Flame & Blame - S J Higbee - Bog

Fantasy dragon adventure for all ages, featuring living legend and disaster magnet, Castellan the Black... Castellan the Black, former mighty dragon warrior and recent mouldy old has-been, now resides with his daughter and that waste of skin and scales who is her mate in their cramped lair at Wyvern Peak aery. Their young family is at full stretch right now - for Emmy Lou is incubating her third egg. So instead of using his considerable draconic skills to reclaim his former lair from the dratted humans, Castellan is plunged into the middle of family life. Yet everyday chores, such as hunting for food and trimming his battle honours, turn into a dangerous battle of wits with the greedy scale-sack running the aery - Overlord Wendell Bo. Try as he might, Castellan is finding it increasingly difficult to ignore the rottenness at the heart of Wyvern Peak aery. Half-starved guards, cracked walkways and overflowing drains are bad enough. But when the life of his small granddaughter is put at risk, Castellan isn't sure that all his 721 years of experience will be enough to save her. Or himself...
