What to expect

'Jon Hollins is a one-of-a-kind storyteller, a master of epic fun and nonstop action' Nicholas Eames, author of Kings of the Wyld

"YOU'RE NOT PROPOSING WE STEAL FROM A DRAGON?"
It's not easy to live in a world ruled by dragons. The taxes are high and their control is complete. But for one group of bold adventurers, it's time to band together and steal back some of that wealth.
No one ever said they were smart.

Ocean's Eleven meets The Hobbit - Jon Hollins' debut combines non-stop action, death-defying adventure and a never-before-assembled cast of wisecracking misfits. It is a worthy addition to every fantasy lover's horde.

Critics Review

  • So freaking hilarious . . . fast paced, hard to put down and incredibly entertaining with some truly memorable characters

    Reality's a Bore
  • Unlike other books which contain a rag-tag gaggle of wacky adventure types, this book is actually good. And I mean, really really good

    Tiny Reviews
  • Hollins’s seat-of-the-pants fantasy comedy snowballs wildly into a glorious disaster of fire, magic, multiple threats to people’s intestines, and fun-for the reader, if not the characters . . . a dragon’s hoard for any fan of comic fantasy

    Publishers Weekly
  • Ideal for fans of humorous capers and heist stories – such as Ocean’s Eleven, Scott Lynch’s Gentleman Bastard Sequence series and Lois McMaster Bujold’s Vorkosigan Saga

    Booklist
  • As a stand-alone novel, it’s extremely satisfying; as the beginning of a proposed series, it promises excitement and thrills for years to come. Highly recommended

    FantasyLiterature.com
  • Humor, action, snappy dialogue, and creative solutions to unusual problems . . . in this quirky tale, it’s the infighting and the unforeseen circumstances that makes things so entertaining
