Basilisk - Paperback

by Finley Aaron (Author)

Gold. It has long been rumored that dragons don't just hoard gold, they make it. But how? Humans and dragons have fought and died in hopes of learning the secret. Felix Melikov has made gold, once, almost by accident, and he's never managed to do it again, nor has he figured out how it happened the first time. He's determined to sort out the secret. But he's not the only one who's trying to solve the riddle. There are others, ancient foes, who are obsessed with making gold, and they'll stop at nothing to learn what Felix knows. Can Felix stay ahead of them and solve the mystery first? Or will this all-consuming quest consume him, too?

Author Biography

Finley Aaron grew up reading books of all sorts and believes the best stories are in the ones in which things happen. And the best sorts of things to happen in books are the very things that so rarely happen in real life, for they christen the doldrums of our days with that spark of life that reminds us things can happen to us, too, if we are trained and ready when the adventures come to meet us. Finley likes to laugh, and doesn't mind at all if readers laugh while reading these books, for in fact they were written with an impish, barely-suppressed humor that peeks out and winks at odd moments. If you're paying attention you'll spot them before they duck away. To learn more about Finley's books, visit www.finleyaaron.com
