The Dragon Tax

About this eBook

The only thing more dangerous than trying to kill a dragon is trying to make one pay taxes.

One doesn't turn down a king, so Sybil accepts the job despite her misgivings. Usually she's slaying dragons, not talking to them. Instead of collecting the tax, she unknowingly delivers a curse that leaves the dragon helpless, and she can't bring herself to slay him.

Trapped in a body not his own, the dragon Riastel is scared and defenseless. Sybil finds him charming, in a brutish way. Unwilling to turn him over, Sybil and Riastel are wanted, on the run, and worse? Sybil may be falling in love.

Ratings and reviews

This is the dragon that you'd love to throttle at the start but after the curse that made him human you end up rooting for him to have a good life...

great story, short but I really liked it. I can't wait for the next one, hope it is longer. just bought it book 2

Passed a pleasant morning with this story. Interesting dragon human relationships. Don't have a real connection with the main characters. No emotional investment.
