bit unrealistic that the main character is a buff martial arts trained nerd who never stood up for himself, but i like the story, and you tell it well.
Well for one I love the world your creating. You've made the orcs feel like orcs but still made them relatable... And in a few cases very sexy. I'm also interested in what's going in with Gregory and some if his seemingly unnatural skills. It's also got the right amount of plot and the right amount of hot sex... Give or take a few (I think I'd rather give then take though ^.^)
One point of contention though was when Greg was sent into that pit to fight. I wasn't sure why he was fighting with the club. He's been trained as an unarmed fighter... Why would he try to fight in a way that he's untrained in? That part kinda bugged me... Like if I was in that situation if try and fight with what I know, so I'd try and find something like a rapier, because that's how I know how to fight... So why'd he not fight the way he knows how?
Aside from that point that I've really been enjoying your work! Only stories that get me wanting to comment when alls said and done. ^.^
Looking forward to more and please keep up the great work!!
Your story is very original and i have quickly become a fan. I realize you have a life but keep in mind not knowing how long til your next installment is quite lol frustrating? probably not the best word to describe the anticipation but its close. Thanks again for sharing. I look forward to reading more.
Will
Another story that I couldn't reading. Good from start to finish. Thank you.
This is an amazing story. It's great that the fantasy world doesn't simply transform into a huge fuck-fest but rather has a plot and direction it is following. Keep up the good work! Looking forward to the next chapter.
The series so far is awesome. I could not stop reading. Please continue to write more in the series.
When I first started reading this story, I did so with the mindset that it was just another source of smut for me to get off to. But now your world fascinates me. I actually want to see what happens next in the story more than whatever sex scene is happening.
I have noticed that the way you write has improved since you first started, as well. You've taken names I could barely waste a thought on before and made them memorable characters in the case of Talina and Valise. The occasional grammatical error is still there, but the overall output is amazing. Definitely a pleasure to read.
I have read all of your submissions and frankly I can't get enough of them. I checked your bio trying to figure out when the next chapter would come? This one and the warlock are by far my favorite 2 stories and I hope you don't stop posting here. So, if possible, could you please let us all know when the next chapter will come out for this story? Your a great writer and I wish I was able to write as good as you do. Thanks, bedurzan
HAVE YOU FORGOTEN YOUR LOYAL READERS , I MISS YOUR STORY PLEASE O' PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF EVERYTHING HOLY DON'T KEEP ME HANGIN' YOU ARE KILLING ME WITH THE SUSPENCE.
PS: THANK YOU FOR THE WORK YOU HAVE DONE SO FAR LOVIN' ITTT !!!!!!!1
Really enjoy the story aswell as the sex scenes.
Hope you will continue this story.
Yours Sincerely,
R2
Great story i hope you continue. I keep waiting for him to claim to the world "I am the DRAGON Reborn!".
Maybe it was just Gregory getting his ass beat down, but I liked this chapter a lot better than the previous ones -- this is seeming less and less like a Gary Stu story. I'm interested in where the story goes from here, as well as which lovely lady will fall prey to our hero next. Keep up the good work.
You have a deft touch, fertile imagination and enviable writing skills.
Like others, I look forward to the further adventures of ' The Missing Dragon'.
Great stuff
Freakin great style. Just the right amount of sex with plenty of action and a truely catching background. When can we expect the next 10 chapters? :)
As an avid reader of smut, fantasy and many other forms of fiction I must say that this is one of THE best stories I've ever read. Thank you for brightening my day with this gem.
I am REALLY enjoying this series. Both the erotic and fantasy elements are superb. Pear continue with this series, as I really have to find out the true story behind Gregory :-)
Thank you for this amazing story, it is my favorite story in this site. I look forward to the next chapter.
There are a few hiccups and misplaced words and grammar, but those are easily overlooked by your brilliant use of plot mechanisms, imagery, and characters that are multi-faceted. I started reading you with my girl, and we can't get enough!! Keep it coming.
I love reading erotic fiction and this series is my favourite by far, please continue releasing more!!
its been months since chptr 3 . plz when is the next one coming
The missing Dragon is still missing a few chapters. PLEASE, write more(soon)!
To be honest you've already written enough to start an epic fantasy novel. I know how long it takes to write those as two of my favorite professional authors were averaging a full and complete with edit book every two year, which in turn drove their fans like myself a little nuts for having to wait so long between books. I find I don't mind the wait of a few months per chapter since they are so well written and so long and fun to read. Looking forward to the next one. I may have misspelled the name of the world, but like many of my favorite authors you've created your own world which we have not yet begun to explore and placed in it both the stories of "The Defiled Temple" and "The Missing Dragon". I am interested to see if these stories will crossover. I like all your fans hope to see a continuation of these and your other stories soon however you choose to publish them. Thank you
Hey folks! Been getting a few requests for updates recently wanting to know how far along I am with The Missing Dragon. Well, I'm about 8 pages into it so far which is about 1 Lit page in length. That's not much but as I said, I've been writing other stuff. I do always come back to it though and it's not a matter of writer's block or anything. I know what's next for Greg, just haven't really had the time and the will to get it down yet. Sorry for the long-ass wait but I'm giving writing a novel (that I can actually sell) a try. Writing for you guys is nice, but writing for you guys in a way that would put a roof over my head and food in the fridge would be nicer. ^_^ Anyways, thanks for bearing with me and know that the dragon won't stay missing forever!

Enjoyed all three chapters,but feel sold short ! Where. Is Chapter 4?
I really love what I have read so far, but its not enough! I questions that want answers. I am really in awe of talented authors like you, even if there are a couple of early plot holes. Speaking of plot holes....
Let me introduce Greg, who has been seriuosly working out and learning martial arts for 6 years or so. He is completely ripped and has moves like Bruce Lee, but he is so afraid of himself that instead of dropping Freddie with a quick roundhouse he choose to run and cower in a thorn bush. He's so insecure that he hides under baggy clothes, has no friends, and is a virgin. Then he sees one statuesque Orc and all those inner demons go away?
I'm sorry... Plot hole big enough drive a truck through... But on the other hand I don't care. I can't wait until you post more... Whenever you post chapter 4 I will read it, and I will love it.
I still think about this story six months after reading it
GrumpySkates! Have at thee!
First of all, Greg doesn't have moves like Bruce Lee. He's taken a martial arts class for a few years after school and he's pretty good at it. He knows how to defend himself and at least the basics of what he should be thinking about in a fight. He isn't invincible though and most of his victories were under favourable conditions. Algra wasn't in her right mind and she really underestimated him. Bolut was seriously out of shape which let Gregory use his agility and smaller size to his advantage. When he does get into a real fight with Freddie, it's just a total brawl, and yes he could always probably have taken Freddie in a fight. When he goes up against trained and fit orcs in a real even combat situation though, he gets his ass handed to him. He's still got a lot to learn. As for why he didn't roundhouse Freddie and chose to hide in a bush? Freddie had quite a few friends. Oh, and a knife. Even Bruce Lee would probably run with those odds.
Next up, whilst Greg was insecure, he was more of an outsider than anything else. He wore baggy clothes to feel comfortable and because they were easier to move in. The guy wasn't a whimpering idiot in his time on Earth.
So, seeing the hot orc and realising he's in a completely new world did get rid of a hell of a lot of his hang-ups. He got laid. He got a hell of a confidence boost. And he's still trying to figure the whole thing out and realising he might not be able to. So he acts out and does the best he can in a situation where he has no clue what he's really doing. He's scared because of that, but also liberated because of it too.
And he still has plenty of inner demons.
So there! ^_^
Dragons are my favorite mythical creatures. I like the getting thrown into another world. But the question I have for you is, "Does Greg truly want to return home?"
This addition to your story was a bit long. The writing however was top notch as is the norm with your previous work. Your foreshadowing is a bit overstated and might be better received with a little more subtlety. At the moment, you seem to be developing a large number of characters. The cast seems to be getting a bit excessive, although excess might be what you're aiming for in an erotic fantasy. Overall, I am quite impressed with your work. Good job, keep it up, and bring us more.
Just got done reading your first 3 chapters of this story and must say it is a lovely peice of work. I do hope you finish it. My only gripe would be the year long wait til the next chapter is finished.
I hope I remember to check for new installments of this story in a few years.
I dont mind the wait as long as the story is good.
And I dont mind the lenghty chapters.
Goodluck and keep at it. There are far too few stories of this caliber out there.
And even worse is that almost all of them are incomplete.
Actually, I love IronDragon, my fiancé, but I love you and this story second! :3
Baby boy, I hope you get the next one up on here soon! As in yesterday! As in RIGHT NOW! Daaayyyuuummm! I can't wait! =)
Great story, however even with shorter chapter would like more frequent posting, especially given how much we pay.
Oh, sorry we don't pay anything!
great story, loved it ,anxiously waiting for next chapter, please write more......please
I reached the end of this chapter only to feel aggrieved that I could not continue to the next. Please continue with this story as it would be a massive shame to waste what I believe is one of the best story lines on here.
Hey lien_geller,
I don't want to add any more pressure or anything, but I'm sure im not the only one asking, do you know approximately when you might post chapter 4 of The Missing Dragon? It is an amazing story and i have been a fan of yours since aphrodisia and it would be amazing if your fans would know approximately how much you wrote or when to expect it! Thanks man! Keep up the great work!
Glad to see you haven't fallen off the face of the 'net. I'd love to see our hero get his payback, and just hope he and his trainer remember that they aren't alone in that arena. (He's got an actual team that needs work. :P)
I know craetiveness takes time. Your stories are something to look forward to. Hope you are close to posting another chapter.
Great story man! It's a shame Talina and Greg didn't work out. Would be nice if Greg has his harem of devoted women. Great story though.
Amazing, creative, vivid and sexy. I absolutely love it, can't really say more on the matter.
I'm so enjoying this story. You have made a believable world. Please give us another chapter!
That was literally the best post ive ever read on Lit. Your writing skills are amazing! Its totally worth a chapter a year ( though with the speed i read at it wouldnt hurt to write them a litte bit faster) Keepup the awesome work and good lick with the novel :P
Glad to see you didn't fall off the face of the earth, LOL, there are a LOT of people who have been waiting for this story (and I'm a few months late I know, ;-)) and are glad you're still continuing it!
Ok, enough of this posting on literotica, get the damn book published! This story has got me to the point where I would actually buy it and I'm a Yorkshireman, we don't part with our money easily!
love the story line; am waiting for the next installment.........
Can't you speed up the proccess for the next installments and uhm i think it would be unfair if a pair of eyes in the water couldn't join in the fun and oh i love babies.
The next installment can't come soon enough. Truly superb. A great adventure. The plotting, dialogue, characterizations--all terriffic. Reminds me of "The Dragon and the George". Keep up the good work.
Pretty please? This tale is not done and I am enjoying your work so very much right now. I'll be checking back with bated breath for the next chapter!
i check once a day for more so HURRY THE FUCK UP!! serisuly though great story
This story had me as much as reading Dragon Riders of Pern (all of them) and the Shanara series! Love the sexual plot within it. Please consider extending the series.
I really wish you'd keep going there's still so many places for this story to go its fantastic and shouldn't end there
your bio says to post here for updates. I was wondering about the progress for TMD.
TMD Ch. 03 is about 50-60% done. Though bear in mind that it's still being written so that's a best guess. I only plan my stories so far ahead (with only major plot points to write towards) and I make a chapter break when I consider it appropriate. I think I have a comfortable place to stop chapter 04 but that might change.
Apologies to everyone for how late this particular chapter is. Though I am constantly writing stuff, and still learning. So it's not completely due to me being lazy. ^_^
Ch. 04 is definitely still on the way!
I'd say a majority of the really good writers on this site get part way threw a story then disappear. It's anoying. So thank you for letting us know your still there working on the story. Yours is one of my favorite stories.
I love this story so many places it could go please give us more.
This is a great story, but you really need to continue. Please.
i hope that you will continue it in the near future, i'd love to see how it continues right to the very end, especially once he completes his proving and shows himself worthy of living amongst the orcs!
I actually started reading this story to fill the time between chapter postings for "Going in Feet First" only to discover I like this story better. It was good to see that things are coming along but now its like when you pre-order a book or game and the release date is just gradually pushed back and you keep bouncing in your chair for them to just send you your copy. Excellent work by the way.
This is easily my favorite story series on this site. I hope you're still around and will be updating it sometime in the coming months, or at least update your profile with what you've been up to lately.
In anycase, keep up the good work, we'll be waiting!
I have read many many stories on this site and others this storey for some reason is my all time favorite. Please Please Please continue. I love fantasy and I love the sex, and I love your writing style, and I appreciate the thought and time you have put in to the intricacies of the story line. You ROCK! I can't wait for the next installment.
Excellent story line. I have enjoyed "The Missing Dragon" immensely. Want more!!!
You write extremely well. Your stories are compelling adventures with sympathetic characters, interesting plots, and lovingly crafted sex scenes. Now please finish one of them before you start a new project! As it is now, you seem to write until you have everyone's sexual relationship worked out--then stop. This is a disservice to yourself because you are not writing stroke stories, you are writing epics. I could easily see The Missing Dragon as something on the order of The Hobbit, maybe more, depending on how much scope you want to give it. But in order to move the action forward, you have to get out of the bedroom--at least a little. As brilliant as your sex scenes are, after about the 8th or 10th one in a chapter I'm sated, and I find myself scrolling forward to find out what happens next. You have established unequivocally that Greg and his ladies are terrific lovers, splendid people, and love each other very much. Now it's time for him to get bashed again, take on the leadership of his pack, show the others that with discipline berserkers can be lured, trapped, and double teamed. Let him uncover the saboteur, outwit the back-stabbing in the human kingdoms, unite the human and orc realms, master the ring and wield the white fire to defeat the demons and black orcs, become emperor and found a dynasty that maintains peace and prosperity for 500 years--what ever you like. Just focus and get it done. Try cutting the number of sex scenes in half, or at least less loving detail. This will give you twice as much room to develop the plot. I think you have real talent and tremendous potential, but the work of being a writer is to bring a story to some kind of resolution.
I have decided to give one star rating to all the abandoned stories (only abandoned stories, stories with conclusions are safe) in the top list. I would like to read from other more active writers and would like to see them in the top list....
Your writing gets better and better with each entry. I am sure that when you release your novel it will be a success. But I found your usage of sat and stood jarring. In trying to research where these verbs are used in this way (in place of sitting or standing. E.g. "I had been sat at my desk for three hours when the phone rang.") I found that it is largely a Northern British colloquialism and not yet considered formal grammar . Why is it jarring? In America that usage would likely only be encountered in Appalachia. Of course much of Appalachian grammar is a holdover from Victorian days, and what was high English then is now low English.
As I read your stories now, the usage has become customary to my ear. So I have adapted. I hope you will not be offended by my critique. Again I love your work.
Hey guys! For those who are wondering if I've left this story to never return, I haven't!
I'm just being slow-as-fuck due to a myriad of reasons. If that doesn't satisfy you then take solace in the fact that I haven't got paid for any of The Missing Dragon, and probably never will. Writing it is a very big endeavour since it's a long-ass story. Still, I'm not giving up on it!
So just a few notes here for the people who have been writing to me...
First off, to all the people who have continued to write nice things about my work whilst I maintain the pace of an ox with an Abrams Tank strapped to its back, thank you! You guys keep me writing, so don't think I'm not reading your comments or that they're falling on deaf ears. ^_^
And some special mentions go to:
aegrisomnia456 - I appreciate what you're saying, but as I said, writing this story is fun but it's not letting me take out a mortgage on a house. If I get other new ideas, I write them. Sometimes going to another story and then coming back makes the original story better for it. My priorities now are writing a book that I hope to sell, The Missing Dragon and then another story that may or may not be up on Lit in the future some time. I shift between those three depending on if I feel in the right mind-space for each one. If I can write the story that's hopefully gonna get some money in the bank, then I will. If I can't write that, then I'll write more of TMD.... et cetera.
Also, don't assume everyone's sexual relationship is worked out or that there aren't any twists along the line. Believe it or not, I know where this story is going and where it will end. I don't write it as much as I should, but I think about it almost every day. So it's pretty well planned out. Oh, and if you want less sex then you came to the wrong place. Again, I get what you're saying, but if I have less sex then the people who want that go away for a while and the horde's of people who want more of it show up and start crying foul. So I'll write as much sex as I deem fit, then at least I'm comfortable with it whilst someone is telling me it's wrong. :op
If you want some finished stories of mine then try Lady Winter, The Defiled Temple or Unleashed. The Defiled Temple isn't wholly finished but it has a resolution I'm comfortable with for now.
Anonymous "I will start punishing authors..." - At the risk of feeding a troll, this story isn't abandoned. Also, if you think that going around 1-bombing my stories for the shits and giggles is going to remotely affect me in any way, either to write more or to give up and go home, then you're very, very wrong. I'd also suggest you take up some form of hobby, because you clearly need to find something better to do with your time.
cmsheaff - Thanks! Glad I'm improving. It's what I'm here for. Also, I'm actually from Northern England so, y'know, deal with it. When my book sells in North America I'll give a crap. ^_~
Please write a new chapter soon. This tale is way too good. Speaking for my wife as well, we can't wait to read the next part when you post it.
Lien,
I just finished Ch 3, and am strung out now looking for the rest of my fix!! Any idea when you'll have some more of this great story?
This is by far one of the more amazing stories I've read. You need any donations to keep this going?
Really looking forward to the next chapter - hope it will be soon and thanks for a great story.
Just wanted to say loving the story, you really capture my imagination with the martial arts. Please put more in, I want to see the Beserkers put in their place. I'd love to see Algra's pride a little knocked, she's to cocky that "me strong you small I win" she lost once now prove to everyone why she should call him Master!
JC
I had to read this story twice to settle my fix. I hope your plans are to complete this potentially best seller (in my humble opinion).
I have read this series several times now, and I must say I am looking forward to the continuation. Strangely enough considering where I found this story I feel that it is one of the better works I have read even if you were to remove the sections describing sexual interactions. I almost feel that if you were to remove or tone down some of the more torrid sections and were to bind to total story into one you could get it published by one of the more prominent fantasy publishers.
I look forward to finding out who is trying to kill Gregory, whether he will pass his proving, what mystical secrets the ring holds, and whether or not Greg is the "Missing Dragon" reborn. I also look forward to find out what lies in the past of the friends that Greg has surrounded himself with, as well as any future stories set in this immersive and enchanting world you have designed.
a five star but you interrupt the story to get into dumb sex, Dumb meaning not related to story, it is just sex for sex. If you could chance that so the sex and the story flowed together, WOW
I have to say this is one of the best 'fantasy' stories I've read here on Literotica or anywhere else on the web. Wonderful story, great characters, great plot lines, hope to see much more :) Please finish this!
Cheers and all the best
This is one of the best stories I have read in a long time and it's the second time I've read it. I absolutely love your writing. I can't wait for the next installment!
This is a very good story and I have thoroughly enjoyed reading it. I like the contrast of the characters and their interactions. Well done. I am looking forward for more.
I skipped a lot of d sex part. Too much sex overshadowed the story..
This is one of the greatest series I have read ever, please continue this magnificent work of words
Has it been continued? I can't find the ending, and it appears there have been no updates for quite some time.
Scroll back through the comments, he did respond to comments a couple months ago. Never loose hope. Had a story I was interested in spend 10 years without updates, then suddenly a whole new (nearly) novel worth.
... still hoping to see the Runts gel a bit as a team and hoping Algra (and Talona?) bring them up to speed.
