Synopsis
This is the eighth to be published in the popular hardboiled noir/fantasy series starring Vlad Taltos, a human crimelord in a world mainly populated by the vastly taller and longer-lived Dragaerans. Most of the action in DRAGON would merit its placement as the second book in the series timeline, between TALTOS and YENDI. However, the resolution of the plot takes place between YENDI and the following book in the timeline, JHEREG. When an important Dragaeran nobleman dies and one of his swords is subsequently stolen, it sets off a chain of events that results in war. Right in the middle of the action is our hero, the wisecracking assassin Vlad, who joins the army after the leader of the opposing forces personally annoys him.

Publisher's Note
The bestselling Vlad Taltos fantasy adventure series comes to hardcover--to tell the tale of Vlad's early life that fans have been awaiting for years.

Industry reviews
"So there I was, in a full-scale battle; that is, in a place where no self-respecting assassin ought to be." Dashing Vlad Taltos, the swashbuckling hero of Brust's popular Taltos fantasy series, makes his hardcover debut after seven mass market appearances (Athyra, etc.), with an early episode in his adventures. Vlad's cleverness and skill as an assassin have earned him a place in House Jhereg. They've also drawn to him some interesting friends and enemies, as well as acquaintances who can be called a little of both. At the request of Lord Morrolan, a powerful figure in House of the Dragon, Vlad traces the theft of an ancient artifact, a Morganti greatsword, to a rival Dragonlord, the Count of Fornia. Although Fornia's motivation in the crime seems transparent he wants to start a war over the accusation of theft Morrolan obligingly agrees to fight. And when Fornia sends a couple of bruisers to tell Vlad to stay out of the matter, the assassin's outrage leads him to join Morrolan's forces. While Morrolan and his military strategist coolly plan each phase of the conflict, Vlad gets a close-up look at the ugliness of war. It doesn't take him long to decide that the physical fighting is a cover for a more subtle battle, and that the Morganti greatsword is the key. As always, Brust invests Vlad with the panache of a Dumas musketeer and the colloquial voice of one of Roger Zelazny's Amber heroes. This is a rousing adventure with enough humor, action and sneaky plot twists to please newcomers as well as longtime series fans. (Nov.)
Leuchtenburg 

Vlad Taltos, assassin to House Jhereg, accepts a commission to track down a stolen blade. His actions spark a war between Dragonlords and earn him a place as a reluctant soldier in the army of Dragonlord Morrolan. The latest installment of Brust's popular Vlad Taltos series (after Five Hundred Years After, LJ 3/15/94) unearths an episode from the early years of the wise-cracking, swashbuckling hero. Filled with scenes of battle and intrigue and liberally salted with tongue-in-cheek humor, this title belongs in libraries where the series is popular.
