Malice
Once upon a time, there was a wicked fairy who cursed a line of princesses to die, and could only be broken by true love's kiss. The handsome prince. The happily-ever-after. Utter nonsense. Let me tell you, no one actually cares about what happens to our princesses. Princess Aurora is the last heir to the throne. The future queen her realm needs. One who isn't bothered that I am the Dark Grace, abhorred and feared for the mysterious dark magic that runs in my veins. Aurora says I should be proud of my gifts. Even though it was a power like mine that was responsible for her curse. But with less than a year until that curse will kill her, any future I might see with Aurora is swiftly disintegrating. I want to help her. If my power began her curse, perhaps it's what can lift it. Perhaps, together, we could forge a new world. But Aurora is the beautiful princess. And I am the villain.

The Penguin Book of Dragons
Since the earliest moments of human history, dragons have occupied a place in our imaginations. Bringer of night in Ancient Egypt; mortal enemy of the elephant in South Asia; slain by a god in Sanskrit hymn. In the Book of Revelation, there is the Leviathan; in Loch Ness, a monster. Their crushing coils and their treasure hoards are found throughout literature and language: in the Old English of Beowulf, in the Elvish of Tolkien, in the far-flung travels of Marco Polo. 'The Penguin Book of Dragons' is the definitive collection of all this and more: 2000 years of legend and lore about the menace and majesty of dragons.
