"Rupert didn't especially want to be a prince. And he certainly never asked to be the second son of a royal line that really didn't need a spare. After all, a kingdom suffering from crippling financial losses couldn't very well afford to have different factions fighting over who was more worthy to rule as the next king. So Rupert was sent out to slay a dragon and prove himself - a quest straight out of a legend." "But Rupert also discovered the kinds of things legends tend to leave out, as well as the usual demons and goblins, a dreaded Night Witch ... and even worse terrors hidden in the shadows of Darkwood." Rupert did find a fiery dragon - and a beautiful princess to rescue too. But the dragon turned out to be a better friend than anyone back at the castle. And with the evil of Darkwood suddenly spreading its roots ... and with the blue moon rising and the Wild Magic along with it, Rupert needed all the friends he could get.
