The Dragon coils in preparation for its strike. It is fearsome and strong, but not so much as it is wise. With each lesson it learns it becomes better prepared and its coils tighten still further. One night - perhaps not far off - the Dragon will learn its final lesson and strike and break the bonds of our dead bodies. It will lunge out of the prison of blood and we will follow its tail to Heaven and the freedom of our souls. --Aldous Godolphin, Invisible Philosopher of the Subtle Terror

A truly excellent sourcebook for the Ordo Dracul in the World of Darkness game Vampire: the Requiem. Highly recommended if you play one or use them in your chronicle.
I loved the first part of the book here as the story is very fun to read. The information in it is rather useful but I never really found a use for it in the game but I did buy this book when I was finishing up playing it.
I hope that someone will find a good use for it as I am putting it on Bookcrossing to give it away,
