STORY DESCRIPTION This sexually-charged adult thriller is based on the story of Saint George and the Dragon, and is set around about 600 A.D. in the Levant.
Valhman, a merchant from Magnis, owns a sly lascivious black African slave called Slipperon, who unbeknownst to him is having sexual relations with his wife and his, soon to be married, young daughter, Yasmin.
Whilst Valhman is away with his camel-train he is attacked and the knight, George of Tyre, comes to his rescue. Out of gratitude the merchant invites the knight to stay with him for a few days before he recommences his journey homeward, a place he has not seen for twenty-five years. During the stay, George recounts tales of his life.
Slipperon is caught dallying with Valhman's wife and is saved from death by George who takes the slave with him.
During the journey to Tyre, George and Slipperon stop overnight in an inn which is attacked by bandits. George, with some assistance from Slipperon, kills several and drives off the rest. As a reward the villagers give him a new shield, painted white with a red cross thereon.
A Jewish goldsmith and his family join the two travellers as they continue on to Tyre. At the city the Jews go off to find lodgings and work whilst George takes his slave to meet his family, there being an emotional reunion. He discovers that his younger brother, Timothy, has turned out to be bad, having run away years before taking with him Jezebel, a young girl George was very fond of.
Not long after Yasmin marries, the town of Magnis is attacked by Draco and his horde and many citizens are carried off as slaves, including her and her husband. They are herded far to the east to Borgha, a town where anything can be sold. Yasmin's husband is given to the local ruler as a plaything, she becomes Draco's concubine.
Draco, his horde and Yasmin go to his base city, Palmyra, there to rest up before his next foray. When he sets off again, he sells Yasmin to the Grand Vizier.
Laying waste to the lands around Antioch, Draco demands tribute, food and pretty girls from the King. In time, George and other knights come to the aid of the beleaguered city. On the promise that the King's beautiful daughter, Aphrodite, will marry the victor, George and Draco meet in battle.
