Dragon Knight by Tari_Roo

Title: Dragon Knight
Author: tari_roo
Characters: John Sheppard, Cameron Mitchell, Elizabeth Weir, Rodney McKay, Teyla Emmagan, Ronon Dex, Sam Carter, Carson Beckett, Radek Zelenka, Evan Lorne
Summary: Atlantis is imminently under attack by an Asuran fleet, and Queen Elizabeth has a desperate last chance plan. Recapture the dragon that is supposedly their last hope in defeating the Asurans. Rodney McKay and his team are back on their quest to capture the black dragon, Jhepard-shon. Shep though is determined not to be found... mostly because he is still recovering from the last attack.

Also, it has dragon!John. Dragon!John. *enough said*
