Novellas – Everything Is Better With Dragons

Due to be published by Grim Dark Magazine in August, this novella by C.L. Clark sounds like it’ll be a very good read. I’ve reviewed one GdM novella and there’s another on my currently reading pile, so I’m really looking forward to getting my ARC of this book.

Book Description

Kill the beast.
Earn some coin.
Get the girl.

Or at least, that’s how it was supposed to go. Kova of Stormwatch made a promise when she left her mother and sweetheart weeping on the shore back home: she’d earn her fortune slaying the beasts that haunt the woods and the horrors that lurk in the shadows, or she would die trying. But to do that, she needs an apprenticeship with a master monster hunter. The best of the best: Sayre Boarbane.

Pity that Sayre works alone.

When Sayre drags Kova home by the ear, they’re both in for a rude awakening. Kova’s mother? Missing. Kova’s lover? Taking long walks on the beach with a stranger.

And all those monsters Kova wanted to slay? They’re back in Stormwatch, dragging villagers into the ocean.
