Summary:

Dave is a simple orc with a simple life. He has his dragons, his music, and his friends, and that’s mostly enough. Sometimes though, he gets lonely and wishes there was someone he could share his interests with—maybe even someone he could hold hands with, although he knows it’s not likely that there’s a special person out there for someone who’s seven feet tall and green to boot.

So it’s a delightful surprise when Simon Perrin, the new kitchen boy, not only knows all about dragons, but seems to like Dave as much as Dave likes him back. But all is not what it seems, and Simon is hiding a dark secret. There are sinister forces at work, and Simon needs to find a way out of the situation he’s trapped in. If he doesn’t, it could mean disaster for the entire kingdom of Aguillon, and an even more terrible fate for Pie, Dave’s beloved fingerdragon.

When Dave discovers Simon and Pie are in danger, he’s swept up in a rescue mission that spans an ocean, tests a friendship, and has more dragons that you could poke a lute at. It’s going to be a wild ride—literally.



Once Simon had finished eating, a woman who was obviously the cook crooked a finger and beckoned him over. “Take the scrap buckets up to the dragon hatchery,” she said, “and be careful not to drop them going up the stairs. If there’s nobody there, leave the buckets just inside the door.”

Simon nodded, his heart beating faster. “And they’re real dragons?”

Cook fixed him with a stern look. “Of course. But be sure not to touch them. Dave’s very particular about his dragons.”

“Dave?”

“The dragon keeper. He’s an orc,” she added casually and Simon felt the blood drain from his face. Nobody had mentioned anything about orcs!

“Is...” Simon dropped his voice to a whisper. “Is he dangerous?”

“Probably, if you mess with his dragons,” Cook said a little too cheerfully. “That’s why we send the new hires. If he eats you, then we haven’t wasted too much time training you.”

Eat him? Simon’s eyes widened and his heart thundered in his chest.

There was a tugging on his sleeve and he looked down to see James grinning up at him. “Dave doesn’t eat people. They’re teasing.”

Simon’s knees went weak with relief, and he had to put a hand on the table to steady himself. “Th-thanks,” he stuttered out.

“Spoilsport,” Millie muttered at James, who stuck his tongue out in reply.









Lisa Henry

Lisa likes to tell stories, mostly with hot guys and happily ever afters.

Lisa lives in tropical North Queensland, Australia. She doesn't know why, because she hates the heat, but she suspects she's too lazy to move. She spends half her time slaving away as a government minion, and the other half plotting her escape.

She attended university at sixteen, not because she was a child prodigy or anything, but because of a mix-up between international school systems early in life. She studied History and English, neither of them very thoroughly.

She shares her house with too many cats, a dog, a green tree frog that swims in the toilet, and as many possums as can break in every night. This is not how she imagined life as a grown-up.

Lisa has been published since 2012, and was a LAMBDA finalist for her quirky, awkward coming-of-age romance Adulting 101, and a Rainbow Awards finalist for 2019’s Anhaga.

Sarah Honey
Sarah started life in New Zealand. She came to Australia for a working holiday, loved it, and never left. She lives in Western Australia with her partner, two cats, two dogs and a life-size replica TARDIS.

She spends half her time at a day job and the rest of her time reading and writing about clueless men falling in love.

Her proudest achievements include having adult kids who will still be seen with her in public, the ability to make a decent sourdough loaf, and knowing all the words to Bohemian Rhapsody.

She co-authored the Adventures in Aguillon series with Lisa Henry. Socially Orcward, the third book in the series, was runner up in the Best Asexual Book category in 20201's Rainbow Awards.
