The Sleeping Dragon: Book One of The Guardians of the Flame

Seven college students meet for another night of role-playing games, where they will be cast as wizard, warrior, cleric, or thief. However, their conniving gamemaster has something entirely new planned for them. The seven gamers are cast into an alternate world of magic, fire-breathing dragons â€“ and a quasi-medieval culture with slavery. The only way back to Earth is through a dragon-guarded Gate Between Worlds, about which little is known.

The five men and two women face tough challenges â€“ simple survival in a harsh environment as well as finding the mysterious Gate to bring them home. Publishers Weekly praised this series for its â€œenergy, wit, and a strong moral sensibility.â€

Joel Rosenberg (1954-2011) was born in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada and was raised in eastern North Dakota and northern Connecticut. He attended the University of Connecticut, where he met and married Felicia Herman.

Joel's occupations, before settling down to writing full-time, have run the usual gamut, including driving a truck, caring for the institutionalized retarded, bookkeeping, gambling, motel desk-clerking, and a two-week stint of passing himself off as a head chef.

Joel grew up reading Robert A. Heinlein, L. Sprague de Camp, Gordon R. Dickson and Rafael Sabatini, and found himself becoming a writer pretty much as a natural outcome of such early influences. His fantasy series include the New York Times bestselling â€œGuardians of the Flameâ€ series, â€œKeepers of the Hidden Waysâ€ series, â€œDâ€™Shaiâ€ novels and two â€œMordredâ€™s Heirsâ€ novels. He is survived by his wife Felicia and their daughters Judy and Rachel.
