Unholy gives the complete epic fantasy experience in novella form, following the story of a young boy who realizes his church's corrupt ways. Lord Jericho, the leader of the church of St. Damascus, trains students in the art of killing dragons and harnessing their magic. Isaac, a student of the church, is called to perform his final test of the year. For the last five years, Isaac has gone against the ways of the Lord and refused to sacrifice the sacred creatures his father had always taught him to love. He doesn't belong. But when test day comes around, Isaac finally gives in to the pressure and sacrifices an innocent peach-colored dragon in front of the class. Appalled with himself and bullied by the others for caring, Isaac seeks redemption by breaking Lord Jericho's most important rule—never leave church grounds—and he stumbles into an adventure that will change his view of dragons forever.
