They have waited incalculable millennia in the unexplored recesses of the Carpathian Mountains. Now an ancient race of dragons is emerging to separate fact from fable in a never-before-divulged record of their origins, their purpose, and their fears for a planet under siege in the Age of Humans.?We are myths. We never existed.?Lumea-Veche, most senior member of the ancient race of Dragons, knows it?s neither wise nor healthy to live in the Age of Humans. Best to remain patient, and endure safely in fabrications. But as humans wreak havoc on the planet, it?s time for an alliance, and for the Dragon race to finally reveal its unique and storied past to the shallow historians who have long distorted it.Here, in the first in a series, is the enlightening document by Lumea-Veche and Tanarul, Lumea?s curious, skeptical, and inquisitive two-hundred-years-young student. Together they embark on an incredible journey that takes them from the land that humans call Romania to the Rhine Valley of Germany to the mountains of Oman near the Arabian Sea, to the jungles of India, to the Arctic Ocean and beyond to seek out and engage the varied species of surviving Dragons to tell their exceptional stories. We meet the descendant of the first dragon slain by a human knight who was later known as St. George. We explore the Aztec civilization through the eyes of the flying serpent Quetzecoatl. We follow the artistic evolution of the world-famous image of the Chinese dragon, courtesy of the race?s eldest survivor. We discover the astonishing origins of the dragon crest of the Dracula legend. And most of all, we come closer than ever to understanding these mysterious symbols of the unknown that up until now have only been the stuff of folklore and fairy tales that have perpetuated an unfounded myth of the gold-hoarding, town-destroying monsters well into the 21st century.

They're called drakon in Greek, azhdaha in Persian, kelekona in Hawaiian, and have names in numerous other cultures as well. They're dragons. Many cultures even agree on what the giant serpents look like, though they may differ on whether these mythical creatures are benevolent or evil. This ultra-compelling volume takes readers on a tour of world cultures and dragon lore. Sometimes, this folklore is entwined with actual historical events, such as a Roman general's supposed encounter with a water-spewing dragon on a march to Africa. Breathtaking images and fascinating fact boxes contribute to this extremely high-interest text.
