The hunt of the dragon

Summary: Elayne is struggling with her ordinary life in New York City. Until she hears that a monster has been caught in the city's sewers - a snake with a head at either end - and Elayne knows her ordinary life is over. For the monster has come from Goloth, land of the fabulous beast. And it's come to take her back. She doesn't want to go - there are so many ways to die in that place. But when her father crosses over, she knows she has no choice. Yet this is a Goloth ripped apart by civil war...that her actions helped start! Worse - the unicorns, who are guardians of that world, have vanished, including her beloved Moonspill. But more startling that that: Tiamat, queen of dragons, has woken from her five-hundred-year sleep. And she has plans for Elayne. Terrible plans. Summoned by a dragon, attacked by griffins, betrayed by pirates, forced to fight, Elayne will need ever ounce of her courage to rescue her father, keep her best friend alive, and unite a realm, all while trying not to fall in love with the former tyrant-king! Yet this she knows: if she is to have any hope of saving Goloth from total destruction, she must bring back the unicorns!
