It was a something that comes one in twenty lifetimes and changes everything for the good - or bad. Something like ... A Big Magic. The question was, Who was the Dragonslayer? and do they have what it takes to kill the Last Dragon? In the days that followed my face appeared on tee-shirts, badges, commemorative mugs and posters.

Welcome to the Last Dragonslayer mini-site. There are four titles in the series: The Last Dragonslayer (2010) In which we meet Jennifer Strange, learn about Kazam and a Dragon is despatched but not without magnificent events that lead on to a Big Magic. The Song of the Quarkbeast (2011) The King wants to control magic and use it for his own ends, but Jennifer and Kazam will not let that happen, and we learn what may happen if Quarkbeasts collide. The Eye of Zoltar (2013) Jennifer goes on what is emphatically not a quest in the Cambrian Empire. She finds the mysterious Eye of Zoltar and also learns a thing or two about Jeopardy Tourism. The Great Troll War (2021) A ramshackle band of humans hold out against the Troll invaders led by Jennifer Strange. An evil mastermind is plotting a dastardly plan, and all seems hopeless. Or is it? All of the site can be accessed from the menu bar at the top of the page. There are details about each book, places to order it, and in the Special Features section, a host of extra information about Jennifer's world.
