A legendary dragon, long thought extinct, has appeared in the city of Ankh-Morpork. This unwelcome visitor quickly crowns itself king and begins charbroiling everything in its path. The hapless citizens turn to the equally hapless Discworld guards, a bumbling group more accustomed to scaring cats than saving the city. Can this ragtag band rise to the challenge and reclaim their streets from the tyrannical dragon before it's too late?
