'In the mad-cap medieval metropolis of Old York lives a boy called Belmont. He's always on the lookout for action and adventure and has a knack of finding trouble wherever it may be. When he sees real-life knights riding out with the Princess Libby for her daily gallop in Centaur Park, he decides to set off on a quest to find a dragon. And he does find a dragon - a goofy accident-prone, phobia-ridden, fire-breathing one called Burnie. But he finds more than he bargains for along the way and is the only one who can save the Princess from the Putrid Pink Pixies and their mistress, the particularly nasty Redwitch ...'
