The Fire Dragon Summary

The Fire Dragon (The Dragon Mage, Book 3) by Katharine Kerr

Book eleven of the celebrated Deverry series, an epic fantasy rooted in Celtic mythology that intricately interweaves human and elven history over several hundred years.

The Fire Dragon tells two separate stories: one set in the present of 1117, and one set in the past, the era of the Civil Wars. In the present, Raena's trouble-making in Cerr Cawnen leads to terrible death and destruction but may ultimately succeed in offering the final working-out of Rhodry's Wyrd. In the past, Nevyn and Lilli attempt to solve the riddle of the curse tablet, but the price will be high.

In this, the eleventh volume in the Deverry cycle and third of the Dragon Mage series, storylines begun in Dawnspell: The Bristling Wood, A Time of Exile and The Black Raven - both the 'present' of 1117 and the past - will reach their triumphant and spellbinding conclusion. But there will be more Deverry books to unravel the situation that climaxes The Fire Dragon...

The Fire Dragon Reviews

Praise for Katharine Kerr and the Deverry novels:

'Kerr is an excellent writer, her stories live and breathe - exciting, unpredictable, and engaging in equal measure.'
Mark Lawrence

'A fantastic plot which turns a simple story into something far more original ... a cracking read ... engrossing' SFX

'A criminally under-rated and overlooked epic fantasy sequence [with] a keen sense of history, well drawn characters, and a complex plot' Kate Elliott, author of the Spiritwalker Trilogy

'An unusually scholarly writer of fantasy' TELEGRAPH

'Much as I dislike comparing anything to The Lord of the Rings, I have to admit that on this occasion it's justified' INTERZONE

'Kerr is a master of her trade...She has created a world that might very well go on for ever, and this one reader sincerely hopes it does' VECTOR

'An extensive and complete world, whose endlessly fascinating details grow book by book' STARLOG

About Katharine Kerr

Leaving snowy Ohio for California, Katharine Kerr studied at Stanford University for a spell before dropping out to join some of the many social movements sweeping San Francisco in the 60s. She first became involved in the field of fantasy through role-playing games, writing articles for gaming magazines and authoring early quests for Dungeons and Dragons - all of which soon led her to fantasy writing, with her first Deverry novel, Daggerspell, appearing in 1986. Since then, her Deverry series has hit The Times and the Australian bestseller lists, garnering fans from around the world.
