When an ancient monster arises from the deep… Joan and her dragon fly to the rescue. Spotting a kraken wrapped around a spit of land off the west coast of Ireland, Joan knows time is against her. When the sun rises, the sea spray and mists won’t hide the mythical monster from human view, or protect humans from the creature’s deadly tentacles. Getting the kraken away from human habitation proves challenging. And when Joan spots a grounded fishing boat, which the kraken refuses to release, Joan fears the creature has already claimed its first victim. Facing a kraken, without getting killed, tests even an experienced hero and her dragon. But that’s the job. A job Joan was born to do. Just her. Her sword. And her dragon. keywords: Dark urban fantasy; mythic fantasy; dragon fantasy; short story series; urban fantasy short story series; urban fantasy; dark fantasy; horror fantasy; dragons; dragons and heroes; demons and devils; werewolves and shifters; series urban fantasy; paranormal shifters; urban fantasy magic; magic and mayhem; monsters and shapeshifters
