Letty is not very good at being a dragon. Actually, he's so terrible at it that his dad went and kicked him out of the house! What's a skittish monster of myth to do in a world where everyone sees him as material for their next suit of armor? Why, find a safe place to call home, of course. With the help of a slightly evil elvish architect, Letty's quest for the ultimate draconic domicile begins!
'" Letty is probably the weakest dragon in the world, but somehow he''s managed to blunder his way into a fearsome reputation. When he and his elven friend Dearia rescue a human girl named Nell, they think they''re doing her a favor. Just like Letty, she''s searching for a new home. Trouble is, the rest of the human world sees it differently--they think Princess Nell has been kidnapped by the terrible and mighty Flame Dragon King! "'
A HOME FIT FOR A (FLAME DRAGON) KING Letty is a weak and cowardly dragon, but exaggerated legends about him spread like wildfire. There isn’t anyone alive who hasn’t heard the name “Flame Dragon King,” and Letty doesn’t like that one bit. All he wants is a nice, safe place to live…but as it turns out, he’s not the only one searching. There’s all sorts of house-hunters out there: the minions who took over the House of the Flame Dragon King, a circus troupe full of monsters, a World Serpent with a sense of wanderlust, and now, even a black dragon! Truly, no matter how different they might be, everyone dreams of a place to call home.

Now Angel's got the weight of the world on her shoulders. Lou Cipher was finally dropping his evil ways, but since he's back to his teen self, who knows how he'll choose to use his special powers?
DEFECTIVE BY DESIGN After touring of a whole bunch of spectacularly defective houses, it’s obvious that Letty’s new realtor is pretty bad at his job. And a vampire. So is it really a big surprise that he’s turned out to be a villain, too? Letty might be harmless, but his reputation as the “Flame Dragon King” just keeps getting him in more and more hot water!
Mariners made a major - but neglected - contribution to England's warfare in the middle ages. Here their role is examined anew, showing their importance. During the fourteenth century England was scarred by famine, plague and warfare. Through such disasters, however, emerged great feats of human endurance. Not only did the English population recover from starvation and disease butthousands of the kingdom's subjects went on to defeat the Scots and the French in several notable battles. Victories such as Halidon Hill, Neville's Cross, Crécy and Poitiers not only helped to recover the pride of the English chivalrous class but also secured the reputation of Edward III and the Black Prince. Yet what has been underemphasized in this historical narrative is the role played by men of more humble origins, none more so than the medievalmariner. This is unfortunate because during the fourteenth century the manpower and ships provided by the English merchant fleet underpinned every military expedition. The aim of this book is to address this gap. Its fresh approach to the sources allows the enormous contribution of the English merchant fleet to the wars conducted by Edward II and Edward III to be revealed; the author also explores the complex administrative process of raising a fleet andprovides career profiles for many mariners, examining the familial relationships that existed in port communities and the shipping resources of English ports.
