About How to Break a Dragon's Heart

Findus a commis l'irréparable : il a envoyé une lettre d'amour à Capricia O'Strogoth, fille de l'impitoyable chef de la tribu des Mochetrogoths. Erreur, grave erreur. Car, en ces temps reculés, l'envoi de petits mots à caractère sentimental était chose sérieuse. Dangereuse. Potentiellement mortelle. Qui d'autre que le légendaire Harold, "celui qui murmure à l'oreille des dragons", pourrait sauver son ami d'une mort lente et douloureuse ? [payot.ch]
