With "The Mongolian Wizard," Hugo and Nebula Award-winning author Michael Swanwick launches a new fiction series -- beginning with this story of a very unusual international conference in a fractured Europe that never was.

Jane vuole sottrarsi a un destino infame e per farlo è disposta a pagare qualsiasi prezzo. È una changeling, una bambina scambiata nella culla, rapita al mondo umano. È stata condotta in catene in un universo fatato e guerrafondaio, e costretta a lavorare in una fabbrica di draghi di ferro, tenuti insieme dall’odio e dall’acciaio. Melanchthon è uno di loro, il più maligno e violento, ormai malfunzionante e destinato alla demolizione. Lui e Jane stringono un patto, uniti come sono da sentimenti di vendetta, rancore e voglia di bruciare ancora nella notte. La fuga dalla fabbrica è solo il primo passo, ma è ciò che viene dopo il vero incubo: crescere e trovare la propria strada in una società scomposta, consumata dall’avidità e dalla brama di potere, dalle droghe e dal sesso occasionale, il tutto con i più improbabili compagni: coboldi, fate, goblin ed elfi corrotti che sniffano polvere di fata in club esclusivi. Ma la magia dei draghi di ferro non conosce limiti, e Melanchthon infesterà la mente e il destino di Jane, finché un giorno non tornerà da lei per un ultimo folle volo. Michael Swanwick sovverte gli archetipi con un libro anarchico e febbrile, diventato in breve tempo un cult del dark fantasy. La figlia del drago di ferro è la storia di una bambina, di una ragazza, di una donna che combatte da sola contro la violenza del mondo e contro quel drago che, come un impulso autodistruttivo, non smette di venirci a trovare.

A slave in a dragon factory that manufactures flying fighting machines, Jane changes her destiny when a voice from a dragon promising freedom and revenge prompts her to escape and challenge the foundations of the world. Reissue.
