There’s only one thing scarier than slaying a giant, fire-breathing dragon...slaying the wrong giant, fire-breathing dragon. Sir Terry knows that as a valiant (but solidly middle-class) knight he doesn’t have a chance of winning the beauteous Princess Gloria’s hand in marriage... unless he kills the dragon on the far edge of the kingdom and claims her as his reward. But Prince Charming never had to contend with re-zoning. After Terry defeats the dragon, he discovers he has slain the scourge of the kingdom next door. He’s still won a princess. Unfortunately, she’s nicknamed “Crazy Jane” for her habit of talking to dead animals. Luckily for Terry, Princess Gloria wants to give him another chance, and she arranges for him to save her from a fake kidnapping. Rescuing a damsel who’s not actually in distress ought to be easy, but events soon take a dangerous turn. No matter what, Terry must save Gloria. Because everyone knows that getting stuck with the wrong girl is truly a fate worse than dragons...

When he accidentally defeats the dragon in a neighboring kingdom, Sir Terry, a middle-class knight, wins the hand of Princess "Crazy Jane," who talks to dead animals, but instead fights for the love of the beautiful Princess Gloria to whom he is wrongly devoted. Original.

Life in the magical mess of the Detroit Free Zone is never easy. When you're laboring under the curse of a certain prideful, overbearing dragon, it can be down right impossible. My name is Opal Yong-ae, and I'm a Cleaner. At least, I used to be. Thanks to the supernatural bad luck that turns everything I do against me, these days I'm more of a walking disaster. Getting rid of this curse is the only way to get my life back. Unfortunately, dragon magic is every bit as sneaky and deadly as the monsters behind it, and just as hard to beat. But I've never been one to take her doom at face value. Cornered doesn't mean defeated, and in an awakened city that rules herself, dragons are no longer the biggest powers around.

"Zale. Gauthier. Varden. For me, these three dynasties have always sounded like something out of an ancient myth or fairy tale from another world. The concept of humans and dragons helping and living in harmony with one another, without fear, is a distant dream only read of, told of secretly, and quietly yearned for. For, you see, I am the new Quelda of the Tynan Dynasty." These words echo the mystery, horror, and romance found within Schulze's young adult fantasy adventure novel. Along with her new husband, Chalom, Crislin must choose to embrace cruel tradition, run from it, or stand against it. The young couple's only hope is to rally the help of the three peaceful dragon dynasties of Sulaimon-but tradition is not on their side, even outside Tynan. Gaining the dragon emperors' aid is not a likely hope. Then again, any hope at all is valued in Tynan. If they are to bring Tynan's tradition to a permanent end, Crisilin and Chalom must brave the three dynasties and the challenges awaiting there. They must convince the dragon emperors to allow them access to the shrines that house the sacred Aria-protective strands of music that can disperse the evil from Tynan and unite the four dynasties of Sulaimon as a whole once again. Their only aid stems from a sprite whose moods are as changeable as her magic, a young minstrel, and a mysterious fox. Despite the odds, defeating the evil of Tynan is possible-but only if they can escape the Wall first.

When a seemingly crazy, poorly dressed soothsayer tells you not to let a magical talisman fall into the wrong hands, take him or her seriously. DO NOT laugh it off and leave said talisman simply lying around on a side table; you might as well just end the world yourself. —The Handbook of Practical Heroics, p. 134 The kingdom of Deserae is in the most direly perilous of dire perils. The realm’s precious magical talisman—Ancient Artifact Model Seven—is in the grimy hands of the evil Lord Voltmeter (He Who Must Be Named)... Only one man can stop him (and, by the by, win the hand of Deserae’s exceedingly well-proportioned princess). Unfortunately, he’s never really done this sort of thing before. But Prince Kevin Timberline is determined to find a way into the Fortress of Doom (perhaps through the gift shop?), resist the advances of a leather-clad, whip-wielding temptress (well, maybe that’s not so bad), and face an army of unspeakable nastiness (okay, that’s bad), armed only with his reasonably pure heart, questionable courage—and most importantly, a copy of The Handbook of Practical Heroics...
