The Dragon Waiting is a 1983 novel by John M. Ford, set in the 15th century in an Alternate History where, among other differences, Christianity died out in the third century and things like vampires and witches are known to be real.The novel consists of four sections of three chapters each, plus an epilogue. In the first section, each chapter introduces one of the novel's three central characters: Hywel Peredur, a Welsh wizard; Cynthia Ricci, a doctor forced to flee the Medicis' Florence; and Dimitrios Ducas, an exiled nobleman turned mercenary soldier. The second section is set in an inn, where these characters meet each other and a fourth protagonist, Professor Gregory von Bayern. The rest of the plot involves them getting caught up together in various conspiracies involving the encroaching Byzantine Empire on one side and the Wars of the Roses on the other.This novel provides examples of:
