The Silver Crown
(1985)(The third book in the Guardians of the Flame series)
A novel by Joel Rosenberg
Karl Cullinaine, Walter Slovotsky and several companions leave Home - the town they've built in this world of dragons and magicians to which they have been transported - to continue their fight against slavery. Karl is helped by the faithful and enormous flying dragon Ellegon, with whom he can communicate telepathically. Karl is also on a mission to provide protection to the wife and son of a royal family, whose land and castle are under attack by slave-raiding forces. Fierce fighting and surprises are in store for Karl and his friends, as they fight to defend the kingdom under siege.

Joel Rosenberg (1954-2011) was born in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada and was raised in eastern North Dakota and northern Connecticut. He attended the University of Connecticut, where he met and married Felicia Herman.
Joel's occupations, before settling down to writing full-time, have run the usual gamut, including driving a truck, caring for the institutionalized retarded, bookkeeping, gambling, motel desk-clerking, and a two-week stint of passing himself off as a head chef.
Joel grew up reading Robert A. Heinlein, L. Sprague de Camp, Gordon R. Dickson and Rafael Sabatini, and found himself becoming a writer pretty much as a natural outcome of such early influences. His fantasy series include the New York Times bestselling "Guardians of the Flame" series, "Keepers of the Hidden Ways" series, "D'Shai" novels and two "Mordred's Heirs" novels. He is survived by his wife Felicia and their daughters Judy and Rachel.
