(5.00 from 1 review)
A dragon fantasy with a serious purpose. If the Nazis had won, might we now admire them? And how much of them is there in each one of us? Change people for dragons, give them hopes, anxieties and a sense of wonder, give them social order, ingrained prejudice and religious discord, give them national pride and a lust for honour and then give one of them the Words of Fire. Where might it all end?
