5.0 out of 5 stars enjoyable historical fantasy, March 28, 2008
The inhabitants of the village of Dervon cheered the return of the Knight Warwick; no one is happier than the woman who loves him, Lavena. When a dragon killed his friend Manfred, Warwick thirst for revenge planning to kill the dragon. After succeeding, the villagers welcome him as a hero, but Lavena is disappointed in him for killing an intelligent magnificent creature.

Tibalt the dragon discovers the corpse of his brother; he flies to Dervon where he kills the warrior and enflames much of the village. Lavena goes to the home of the wizard Asvald seeking his help. He takes the dragon to 1940 in the midst of the Battle of Britain where Tibalt realizes that humanity has flying machines so his kind no longer own air supremacy. Tibalt attacks the planes of both the allies and axis powers, but is hurt in the battle. Lavena tries to patch up his injured belly, but cannot help the dragon; she needs to find Asvald to save Tibalt's life even as the human armed combatants want to capture the dragon as they see him as a major weapon not a creature out of legend. Tibalt and Lavena, who accidentally was dragged into the future, want to go home, but to do means finding the errant wizard before the British or Germans locate them.

Readers will enjoy this historical fantasy in which a dragon soars in the middle of the Battle of Britain. Ironically the audience and Lavena know he is a fire exhaling dragon, but the WWII military on both sides believe he is a special weapon of mass destruction made by their adversary; none of the brass accepts Tibalt for what he is. The proud Tibalt loses his arrogance when he battles the fighter planes that prove how vulnerable he is. Lavena defends the dragon as she works on way to help the creature and the wizard. This action packed thriller is filled with sorcery and technology battling for supremacy.

5.0 out of 5 stars Battle Dragon Delivers, April 7, 2008
Face it. Edo Van Belkom-the author of Wyrm Wolf, Teeth,and the Dragonlance novel Lord Soth-has failed to garner much recognition in the literary field. Although incredibly underated, the Bram Stroker award winner remains a talent to be watchful for.

His latest novel: Battle Dragon, proves to be his best work by far. The characters are well developed, the plot is original, and the pacing is well balanced. There was never a part in the book that put me to sleep.

Those who enjoy fantasy fiction with a dash of historical fact will be very pleased with this novel.
