If there’s one enduring magical creature that has managed to capture the hearts and minds of fantasy readers over the years, it’s dragons. These mythical creatures are fierce, wise, and honourable (and sometimes dishonourable). Soaring through skies or guarding glittering hoards, they can be terrifying foes or wise companions. Their fire breath and immense size inspire awe and fear, while their intelligence and rarity make them objects of legend. Whether hunted by brave knights or revered by dragonriders, dragons know how to turn the tide in the fantastical worlds they inhabit.
