I · The Main Plot

Where We Start

After Book 2, Vainqueur Knightsbane and his minion Victor are back for their most dangerous adventure yet: circling Outremonde in their quest for levels, riches and glory (Audible and Goodreads blurb).

Major Plot Points & Spoilers

  1. They save lost cities of gold from lead-loving undead, conquer countries wholly unprepared for them and spread the Dragon Way of Life (Audible blurb).
  2. The Fomor fairy lords have gained the ability to level up, so the threat from them grows closer (Goodreads blurb).
  3. The villain Furibon heads toward the legendary city of El Dorado and the heroes must stop him (Goodreads reviewer).
  4. Episodes include a card tournament to settle a life-long rivalry, minion battles, a visit to a wizard school, the awakening of a Tarasque and an accidental summoning of Cthulhu (Goodreads reviewer).
  5. Victor's mental health declines and he accidentally takes a drug-like elixir; the tone turns more serious in the second half (Goodreads reviewer).

Where the Book Leaves Off

The book ends with a prophecy fulfilled and sets up a final war with the Fomor alliance led by Mell (Goodreads reviewer). Book 4's blurb confirms Vainqueur must lead dragonkind against the Fairy Lords of the Fomors.
