Long has it been whispered around Berk that one day a huge monster will rise from the sea and the world will end... And when a spate of local seaquakes start erupting, agitating dragons, things aren't looking good... What can scare a dragon?? Hiccup and the gang investigate and they do indeed meet up with something huge... Could this be the end of Berk?

It's the most exciting Dragons Riders of Berk story yet, from the mighty pen of Simon Furman (Transformers, Matt Hatter Chronicles), with unbelievably dynamic art from Jack Lawrence (Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles).

Meanwhile, in a very special back-up story, Astrid is stranded on an isolated island and is hunted by a group of Smothering Smokebreaths... And to make matters worse, she can't find her battle-axe...

Simon Furman pens this brilliant solo Astrid story, and get ready for some stunning painted art from artist Sara Richard!
