This book introduces a lot of new things to the "Dragons" series. The protagonist as always is David Rain. A geography student bent on being a writer. He got mixed up in all this when he moved in with the Pennykettles, who he discovered was decedent from an ancient line of Gwendolen. This also got him mixed up with the business of dragons, particularly the last dragon Gwain.

The antagonist changes for this book. Theres is a new character and species in this book, the Fain. They are an also ancient species that have long been forgotten. They live in a universe called the dark matter, they are also a totally more advanced species. Some are good, others are tremendously evil an bent on destroying and anything in their path.

The Fain's goal is to kill all dragons that may be living on earth and extinguish the memory of them, saying that they are not meant to be on this world anymore. David's goal is also to get ride of the dragons, but he wants to do it in a way where the dragon will not get killed. Instead he wishes for the dragons to be transported to the dark matter, a place where MOST Fain worship their kind, and the dragons will be safe.
