Nemeses Unexpected
Since the age of 8, when Gerald thought his parents were eaten by dragons, he wanted nothing but to become the greatest dragon lord and kill all the dragons. But when he finally dealt with them, he found that some were willing to respect him- and were worthy of his respect. Only a few seemed bent on enmity with mankind.
After being present at the dragons' moot where most of them declared peace with humans, Gerald hopes his life will slow and calm down. His first hints that this will not be the case are bizarre dreams involving an utterly dead and destroyed Edinburgh. In these dreams he encounters a mysterious talking skull and a wizard version of his nemesis- the fierce dragon named Argyll.
The next few months find Gerald dealing little with Argyll, but a great deal with the kings and queens of Scotland, kidnappers, an inquisitor, the dragon who stole his adopted mother, and rebellions. Responsibilities far beyond any he expected as an adult- never mind at fifteen- consume the next few months of Gerald’s life. And it's not always obvious who is friend and who is foe.
Sometimes people can be even more difficult than dragons.
Young adult fantasy. Historical fiction with dragons.
