This novel is included in the omnibus Saints and Sinners: Omnibus 6.

The book is based on the St George vs the Dragon.

"Evil is innocent, OK?"

Book synopsis (The back of the book says)

The cosmic battle between Good and Evil ... But suppose Evil threw the fight? And suppose Good cheated?

Sculptress Bianca Wilson is a living legend. St George is also a legend, but not quite so living.
However, when Bianca's sculpture of the patron saint and his scaly chum gets a bit too 'life-like', it opens up a whole new can of wyrms ...
The Dragon knows that Evil got a raw deal and is looking to set the record straight.
And George (who cheated) thinks the record's just fine as it is.
Luckily for George, there's a coach-load of demons on an expenses-paid holiday from Hell who are only too happy to help him.
Because a holiday from hell is exactly what they're about to get.

Quote from My Hero

'Listen,' Regalian said, 'I'm holding my watch close to the phone so you can hear the ticking. Fifty-seven, fifty-eight, fifty-nine - there, another gullible idiot's just been born, you have company.'
(Tom Holt, "My Hero")
