Saint George: House of the Dragon Slayer

"By George! I think they've got it!"

The famous legend of "Saint George and the Dragon" is as iconic to the English as Jack and the Beanstalk and a Christmas Carol. The original story was a lot more intense than the abridged version we all know. For our 'Five Fantastic Finds' hear about Religious myths and canon, Damsels in distress, the origins of slaying dragons, the etymology of George and the cost of hiring a hero.
