Description
xNIGHT OF THE DRAGON is an intricately woven tapestry of history, legend and folklore that propels us back into a mysterious time alongside one of the most famous personages to wield a sword.
In 297 A.D., at Rome's apex of expansion and power, a hero emerges; George, loyal Tribune to the Republic of Rome. George's latest daring mission against Goth armies has left him horribly wounded and left for dead. When he appears alive before Emperor Diocletian, miraculously healed, it is perceived an omen of good fortune and earns him an honored promotion, to lead the Imperial Guard. Yet, little does the emperor know that George's restored personal faith will make him an enemy of Rome, and the empire itself.
With constant pressure from invading armies and economic turmoil, the emperor slips into a state of madness. Declaring himself a living god, he enacts his draconian "Edicts of Intolerance," and wages a bloody campaign of religious genocide throughout the Empire.
Honored as a war hero, George and his men must accompany Diocletian's army into Alexandria whereby they witness firsthand his maniacal mass slaughters and torture. George and his men are left with no choice but to renounce allegiance to Rome and flee to the African Sahara. During their long desert sojourn, George must pit his warrior skills and nerves of steel against a ferocious river dragon and save a beautiful princess from certain death.
Amid chaotic persecutions, George encounters a fiery resistance fighter, Crocus, a German chieftain, and eventual ally of the famous Constantine. They join forces in a revolution against the might of the Roman legions and duel against the emperor's fearsome wizard. He is a cunning and vicious opponent, conjuring hellish demons from the underworld into a host of terrifying dragons. Fighting for their lives, the battle sweeps across the empire to the very heart of Rome itself.
The epic finale takes place in the ancient capitol of Rome, where George faces down the pinnacle of Roman power itself, thus setting the stage for the most famous martyrdom in history and becomes... St. George.
