The Dragon Round
Stephen S. Power
The Count of Monte Cristo with a dragon: a dark literary fantasy in which "Power paints his scenes with vivid and meticulous detail, and takes his tale of revenge in unexpected and refreshing directions" (Marie Brennan, author of the Natural History of Dragons series).
Jeryon has been the captain of the Comber for more than a decade. He knows the rules. He likes the rules. But not everyone on his ship agrees. After a monstrous dragon attacks the galley, the surviving crewmembers decide to take the ship for themselves and give Jeryon and his self-righteous apothecary "the captain's chance": a small boat with no rudder, no sails, and nothing but the clothes on his back to survive on the open sea.
Fighting for their lives against the elements, Jeryon and his companion land on an island that isn't as deserted as they originally thought. They find a baby dragon that, if trained, could be their way home. But as Jeryon and the dragon grow closer, the captain begins to realize that even if he makes it off the island, his old life won't be waiting for him. In order get justice, he'll have to take it for himself.
From a Pushcart Prize-nominated poet and short story writer, The Dragon Round combines a rich world, desperate characters, and tightly coiled prose into a complex and compelling tale of revenge, perfect for fans of George R. R. Martin, Gene Wolfe, and Scott Lynch.
