About this listen

It sounds insane, but asking a young dragon to watch over a flock of magical sheep might just be Timmy’s ticket to financial freedom.

To earn his pardon and help Everton win the war against the Eternal Empire, Timmy - Grand Necromancer extraordinaire - has his work cut out for him.

Thankfully, he’s not alone. He has an elite team of questionable characters to help him turn the tide: There’s his pint-sized apprentice who dreams of becoming the Supreme Necromancer. It’s a pity she’s more adorable than menacing. There’s the pyromaniacal elf who isn’t into saving the innocent so much as she’s into smiting (and robbing) the wicked. There’s the ancient vampire whose penchant for getting stabbed has led to a drastic reduction in her wardrobe. There’s the legendary swordsman who’s so legendary that he might actually die of old age instead of meeting his end in battle. There’s the timid bureaucrat whose knack for almost getting eaten is matched only by his knack for paperwork. There’s the dwarf who wants to build a golem so huge it can make a dragon cry uncle. And then there’s the young dragon whose hunger knows no bounds.

Nobody is safe. Not pineapples. Not bandits. Not even giant, mutant cows. Timmy and the gang aren’t the heroes anyone expected, but they’ll get the job done. Somehow. With plenty of property damage.

The Sheep Dragon is a collection of 14 short stories set before, during, and after the first four parts of The Unconventional Heroes series. Each story addresses questions of world-shaking importance like: Is it possible for a young dragon to watch over a flock of sheep without those sheep ending up in his stomach? What do necromancers actually do at necromancer conventions? And what is the best way to deal with a surprise demonic invasion?

When considering reading or listening the Sheep Dragon, I can only assume you're already very invested in the Unconventional Heroes series & plotline. Imho, rightly so. This audiobook has lovely stories, some of which unrelated to the overall plotline, some related.
Because Amanda meeting an old friend in that port definitely seemed like a setup for the next book.
Best of all, a few stories focussed on Timmy & Katie together. That said, Old Man's story was longer than I cared for. I also was kind of sad this audiobook didn't have more of Sam in it. I would have appreciated that.

Wonderful stories to tide us over to the next book

Thoroughly enjoyed reading the whole series, really enjoyed the character storylines, the narrators voices were exceptional to really hit home. Can’t wait for the next instalment of Timmy and his friends!

Sad I need to wait for the next one

This book.. As goofy and repetitive as this series is it keeps building along with its characters. The .5 books creates a foundation, and this one shook me as only a brilliant piece of authorship can.
At significant parts I'm moved to tears to my great surprise and leaves me hungering for the road ahead!

Peak of the series
