  <default_description>Rupert didn't especially want to be a prince. And he certainly never asked to be the second son of a royal line that really didn't need a spare. So he was sent out to slay a dragon and prove himself-a quest straight out of legend. But he also discovered the kinds of things legends tend to leave out, as well as the usual demons, goblins, the dreaded Night Witch-and even worse terrors hidden in the shadows of Darkwood. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt; Rupert did find a fiery dragon-and a beautiful princess to rescue. But the dragon turned out to be a better friend than anyone back at the castle, and with the evil of Darkwood spreading, Rupert was going to need all the friends he could get.</default_description>

    <body><![CDATA[I had to buy this book just because of the opening line.  And it was completely worth it.  It's fantasy, but it's also a story that mocks fantasy.  Plus there's a talking unicorn.  What more could you ask for?]]></body>
