Tracy & Laura Hickman present their new, previously unpublished Dragon’s Bard Holiday story just in time for the holidays…
Duke Wenceslas is freezing in his castle, demanding that some brave knight will bring him the head of the dragon who is keeping his woodsmen from gathering firewood. At the same time, Emperor Dragon Quorlas is roasting in his lair under the mountain, demanding that some brave dragon from among his brood will bring him the head of the knight who is preventing them from gathering cows to eat. Meanwhile, in the village of Betwixt, young Nicholas wants only to deliver his gifts this Yuletide Eve but can’t until he can find a way to convince the knights and the dragons to make peace. Will young Nicholas find a way of keeping his head while all others seem intent on losing theirs?

A charming short book telling a St. Nicholas origin story in a lighthearted fantasy context. Engaging tone with an instantly understandable world. Occasionally a little too jarringly cutesy with the insertion of lyrics from Christmas carols and other popular references, but on the whole a good holiday read for the younger side of young adults.

Was a quick and easy Christmas time fantasy book written by such a mainstay in fantasy. Tracy Hickman known for his work with dragonlance has changed tacks and made this short work entertaining.
very simplistic read and one that could easily be read in one sitting. perfect for young adults

Merry Christmas
A fun little story about the nature of the holiday season, told by one of my favorite storytellers. A recent addition to my Xmas traditions.
