The world has become a vast arrangement of floating islands of varying sizes and shapes. This dizzy universe is populated with rogues, peasants, and petty lords. Their main concerns are for survival, for this world has become plagued with hungry creatures, who are wreaking havoc, known as dragons. Fritz and Gabriel are two dragon hunters, but they are a long way from being among the best. Fritz is a hulking brute with the heart of gold, and Gabriel is an avaricious, high-strung young man with a talent for scams. Their private dream is to own a farm where they can relax and raise sheep. A few floating islands away, there is a fortress owned by Lord Arnold. The lord has a problem. He has been living in fear of the return of the World Gobbler, a monstrous dragon that rises every twenty seasons to spread terror and destruction. Nobody has been able to conquer him. And nobody has ever returned alive or sane enough to tell the tale. Lord Arnold's niece Susie has decided to take matters into her own hands, and she finds Fritz and Gabriel to help her. She is convinced that they are the heroes of her dreams, and she goes with them to the end of the earth for a fantastic and dangerous adventure.
Gabriel: A short, scheming businessman with a heart of gold but a greedy demeanor. He handles all the contracts and finances. Fritz: A hulking, strong, yet gentle-hearted warrior who is the actual brawn of the operation. Despite being a formidable fighter, his true passion is knitting. Susie: A young, fairy-tale-believing girl (niece to a local lord) who joins the duo, bringing a sense of idealism and optimism to their chaotic, profit-driven adventures. Jeremy: A feisty, somewhat neurotic blue creature resembling a flying boy/kid who acts as their loyal pet and transport.
