Subject Matter

Genres: fantasy

Feature(s): Arak, Son of Thunder

Character(s): Arak; Valda; Satyricus; Malagigi; Alsind; Captain Re-is Hazz; Haakon

Synopsis: The voyagers have made their way to China, where they dock at a port filled with dragon-prowed ships. Just as they arrive, though, a real dragon bursts from the water and begins laying waste to all around it. Arak manages to drive it off, but he ends up having to be rescued by his old "friend" Haakon, now the Byzantine ambassador! During trade negotiations, the very undiplomatic Haakon offers to kill the dragon, offending the Chinese authorities (and causing Haakon no little embarrassment). Later, Arak and Valda are accosted by an armed woman demanding to meet Arak, the "dragon-slayer."
