Wyvern Pugilist, where have you been all our lives?" The Boston Post and Intelligentsia "It was not until I read this guide that I discovered I have used all the wrong methods in fighting dragons." An Anonymous Dragon Slayer in California "There is no doubt that Sir Wyvern Pugilist's detailed guidebook will spring to the top of the bestseller lists in no time. I suggest you buy yours now, before the title sells out and you have to wait in line for more copies. Because wait-in-line you will!"

Download or read book Dragon Slayers written by Jeremy Shipley and published by Page Publishing Inc. This book was released on 2024-09-30 with total page 470 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dragon Slayers is a fairy tale for grown-ups. It's a comedy, fantasy-adventure epic for the drunken children in all our hearts. Venture through a world of wild imagination. Experience the explosive fury of Mother Nature on an untamed planet still finding its face as it spins around the sun. Explore the semi-Victorian, modern, medieval, sorta steampunk weirdness of what can be best described as a prototype to what we would eventually call human civilization. Magic, madness, violence, carnage, booze, and bong hits in a hostile and dangerous world of monsters, magical creatures, demons, dinosaurs, giant birds, and psychedelic drugs! It's a truly wild and fantastic adventure unlike any other. A kingdom already struggling with your typical medieval problems--famine, plague, delusions of grandeur--suddenly suffers a horrific disaster, leaving part of the city destroyed. Thousands dead. Scared shitless and dumb as a box of rocks, the psychotic king sends a very small band of farmers and fishermen into the wild to hunt and kill the dragons responsible for the carnage. They are sent forth to die under penalty of death; they're high as a kite and running for their lives on a hopeless quest to confront the most dangerous apex predators on the planet. Dragon Slayers was once described as Game of Thrones as though written by Mel Brooks.

Book excerpt: Donald Trump promised to “Drain the Swamp,” by which he originally meant lobbyists. When he got in, he found an entirely different Swamp—a Deep State that had grown, layer upon layer, within the government. But he wasn’t the first to encounter entrenched Swamp opposition. Abraham Lincoln had to battle the “Slave Power Conspiracy”; Grover Cleveland was the most successful of three presidents to fight the spoils Swamp. Theodore Roosevelt found a new iteration of the Swamp awaiting him: Trusts. After World War II, John F. Kennedy discovered that he had little control over the Central Intelligence Agency, and even found he needed the CIA for his own purposes. Despite promising to shrink the bureaucracy Swamp, Ronald Reagan found himself helpless to even make a dent in it. And Trump soon learned that the Deep State could ensure no one ever brought any of its own to justice. Dragonslayers explains why these Swamps exist, and why they were—and remain—so hard to defeat.
Download or read book Dragonslayers written by Joseph A. McCullough and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2013-03-20 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With its fiery breath, scaly armour, and baleful, malevolent stare, the dragon became the ultimate symbol of evil and corruption in European folklore and mythology. Often serving as a stand-in for Satan, or the power of evil gods, dragons spread death and hopelessness throughout the land. Only heroes of uncommon valour, courageousness, and purity could hope to battle these monsters and emerge victorious. Those that did became legends. They became dragonslayers. The list of dragonslayers is small, but it is filled with great and legendary names. Hercules, Beowulf, Sigfried, and Saint George all battled to the death with dragons. Other heroes such as Cadmus, founder of the city of Thebes, Dieudonné de Gozon, the Knight of Rhodes, and the Russian warrior Dobrynya Nikitch might be less well known to western readers, but also fought and defeated dragons. This book retells the greatest legends of this select group of warriors, while examining the myth of the dragonslayer in a historical, mythological, and even theological context.
