Mythical dragons meet science in an illustrated journey.

Imagine dragons weren't just legends but creatures studied like dinosaurs. "The Flight of Dragons" indulges that fantasy with a blend of scientific theory and romantic storytelling, supported by Wayne Anderson's evocative illustrations. It's a book that could excite not only fantasy lovers but also those who appreciate when imagination is given a veneer of scientific plausibility.

Note: While we do our best to ensure the accuracy of cover images, ISBNs may at times be reused for different editions of the same title which may hence appear as a different cover.

Description

Dragons are real. At every turn, full-page powerful hypnotic eyes, fierce toothy maws, powerful sinewy bodies, convince us. Descended from dinosaurs, light bones separate compartments of hydrogen. Gas inflates for buoyancy. Chemical sulfur reactions flame breath. Soft gold metal cushions rock bedding. Human worship sacrifices submissive maidens.
