For many people there is a moment when it all becomes clear and their purpose in life crystallizes.  For Ruby Firehaven that moment was during an innocuous field trip to the local border museum where she first caught a glimpse of a magical harvester dragon collecting manna.  From that moment on Ruby's mission in life was clear, to get closer to one of those harvester dragon constructs... one that wasn't behind a protective sheet of glass at a museum that is.  Who knows, if things went well she might even be able to pet it.

But, that had been weeks ago and Ruby was still no closer to seeing a dragon up close and personal.  She hadn't even been able to see one on the ground.  Yet, all of that was about to change, because not only was she about to get the assistance of the venerable Under Belly Society, but while she was watching the harvester dragons a real live dragon was watching her... and he had plans of his own.

Join Ruby as she travels up the side of Mt. Doom, meets a renegade goblin trucker, a disgruntled paladin, a crazy wizard, a clan of Amazons turned accountants, and many more... who for all their diversity can agree on one thing.  It was all much, much easier before the borders fell and the insidious forces of multiculturalism, political correctness, and wholesome goodness invaded the Seven Realms.
Can you believe it?  As her first official act, the new consort has outlawed weapons.  How can you vanquish a dragon?  Much less have a good old fashion sword and sorcery action tale without weapons?

Oh, and somewhere along the way Ruby meets Grt, the star of the show, all around good guy, and magical harvester dragon turned baby drag-goon... who very much likes to have his belly rubbed when he's not busy eating manna crisps, gungu snaps, or chocolate covered pressed flower petal wafers... and trust me, just like every other novel out there you don't want to know what the Trolls eat.
