The description comes from the publisher:
The end of the eighteenth century. On the still warm corpse of the newly dismantled Commonwealth, crowds of Prussian officials want to breathe proper Ordnung into the newly conquered territories.
The first victims of the Prussian machinery advancing towards modernity are Polish dragons, which are a rare but permanent element of the fauna of the Vistula River. Known mainly to the Odra’s invaders from storytelling tales of creation, they are quickly recognized as a potentially subversive, nationally unreliable element, and therefore their immediate extermination is ordered.
The penetrating swashbuckler Gottlieb is delegated to this specific mission.
This book is the first part of a multi-episode series of mini-novels. It introduces the reader to the universe of the Dragon Republic, where facts, legends and dragon claws intertwine into an inseparable whole, creating a fabulous landscape of a historical myth.
