Dragonscale Leggings by Freya Pickard. This is a new title, published by Lightning Source UK Ltd in December 2008 though the book itself was not actually available until February 2009. It is a smart looking book with a catchy title and interesting front cover - an inverted potato peeler! The story is as quirky as the cover implies - a young woman who finds herself in a strange world populated by chauvanistic knights and oppressive dragons. Described on the back cover as a romp, the story certainly does so! Pitting herself against nomads, pirates, dragons, knights and peasants, the heroine, Dracomagan, lives through a coaster ride of experiences only to end up in jail. This is a must read for all die-hard fantasy fans as well as being a must read for anyone who wants to cheer themselves up in these dark days of depression and recession. To get hold of a copy you need to visit amazon.co.uk and order it - it takes about 10 days to arrive. ISBN 978-1-84923-353-8
