Young Theo Paxstone aspires to a better life. A virtual slave at a steam mech repair shop, he slaves away under the sharp watch of Master Grimes, along with dozens of other orphan boys. The biggest and meanest of them, Grant, has in it for Theo and his best friend, Ollie, the shop’s part spotter bird. Every day is a struggle for survival. When a dragon attacks the royal tournament and sets it aflame, Theo escapes to help. He saves an elderly steam knight, Sir Bentham, from the blaze, assisted by Bentham’s pugnacious squire, Riley. Together, they decide to hunt the monstrous dragon down — before it can kill again. But nothing is as it seems, and Theo soon finds himself caught up in an adventure that will turn his entire world upside down… THEO PAXSTONE AND THE DRAGON OF ADYRON brings steam punk and medieval myths together, pitting knights in steam powered battle machines against dragons. It’s set in a feudal world mired in injustice and inequality, where even heroes have something to hide.
