“The best mingling of history with historical magic that I have ever seen.” (Gene Wolfe) In a snowbound inn high in the Alps, four people meet who will alter fate. A noble Byzantine mercenary....A female Florentine physician....An ageless Welsh wizard....And Sforza, the uncanny duke. Together they will wage an intrigue-filled campaign against the might of Byzantium to secure the English throne for Richard, Duke of Gloucester - and make him Richard III. Available for the first time in nearly two decades, with a new introduction by New York Times best-selling author Scott Lynch, The Dragon Waiting is a masterpiece of blood and magic. “Had [John M. Ford] taken The Dragon Waiting and written a sequence of five books based in that world, with that power, he would've been George R.R. Martin.” (Neil Gaiman)
