The wild has its fortunes… for those who brave the dragon’s jaws.
Living in the shadowy slums of an industrial city, Cole dreams of escaping his family’s poverty and forging a new life for himself. But nobody ever leaves the slums. The only way out is into the frozen wilderness.
When the winter storms subside, bandits from the outside world prepare to depart and Cole finally sees his chance. But as they head out in search of fortune, he soon learns of their ambitious and death-defying plan—to hunt a dragon and harvest its precious pelt.
Armed with nothing but their measly bows, the thought of a new life drives Cole on… even when a first encounter with the majestic beast causes him to doubt his conviction.
But it’s not just the dragon he needs to worry about. He soon realizes they’re not the only ones looking for it…
