Dragonsbane
Description
Barbara Hambley almost seems forgotten in most fantasy circles these days, being eclipsed by the new modern crowd of fantasy writers like Martin, Lynch, Erikson, and the like. But in her prime she created some great books. Dragonsbane is one of her best. It’s a tale that incorporates some of the standard sword-and-sorcery tropes but innovates. The characters are all well drawn and complex. Not your proto-typical hero on a quest to slay a dragon at all.
