Destiny
has called.
With
Jaevid Broadfeather forever lost to the depths of Luntharda, Felix Farrow
struggles to stand on his own. He begins a violent downward spiral which causes
him to abandon his post as a dragonrider, hiding in the halls of his family
estate. His one hope for redemption lies within the heart of someone from his
past—and the very last person he ever wanted to see again.
And
now the time has finally come.
Hovrid,
who has ruled Maldobar as a tyrannical imposter, is preparing to make a
decisive assault against Luntharda that will destroy what remains of the elven
race. Only Jaevid, Felix, and their trusted friends are able to stand in his
way. They have only one chance to end the war, and only one hope to absolve the
curse that threatens to destroy their world. The stage is set. The plan is in
motion.
What
began as one boy’s adventure will now end in blood.

BOOKS IN THE SERIES:
When
Jaevid Broadfeather is given the rare opportunity to become a dragonrider for
the king’s army, the 15-year-old boy has no idea that he is part of a
conspiracy that will rock the very foundations of the kingdom.
Jaevid
Broadfeather has grown up as a wartime refugee, hiding from the world because
of his mixed racial heritage. He feels his future is hopeless, until a chance
encounter with a wild dragon lands him in Blybrig Academy—a place usually
forbidden to anyone but the rich and royal. But Jaevid’s case is special; no
dragon has voluntarily chosen a rider in decades, so the proud riders of
Blybrig must begrudgingly let him join their brotherhood despite his bloodline.
Lieutenant Sile Derrick, a sternly tempered man with a mysterious past, becomes
his instructor and immediately takes a peculiar interest in Jaevid’s future.
While
struggling through the rigorous physical demands of training, things begin to
go awry. Jaevid witnesses the king’s private guards kidnapping Sile in the dead
of night. When none of the elder riders are willing to help him, Jaevid begins
a dangerous adventure to save his instructor.
Everything
Jaevid learned at the academy will now be put to the ultimate test.
Jaevid
wants to pass his Avian year of training . . . but will he even survive it?
What
kind of power is lurking inside him? After a year of training to become a
dragonrider, Jaevid Broadfeather has been sent home to rest during a
three-month interlude. But when he returns to find the king drake has chosen
Beckah Derrick as his new rider, Jaevid realizes something big is about to
happen. Every fiber of his being is pushed to the breaking point as Jaevid
battles through his avian year, preparing for the final graduation test of the
battle scenario. But there is more standing in his way than a few pushups and
fancy sword moves. Jaevid must face a new fear as he is tormented by a gruesome
nightmare of a mysterious gray elf warrior murdering the royal family of
Maldobar. It seems obvious to him that this is some kind of message about how
the war started long ago—until Felix assures him the king is very much alive.
With his strange powers growing stronger by the day, and that violent dream
replaying in his mind every night, Jaevid no longer wonders if he will pass his
avian year or not—he wonders if he will even survive it.
The
truth will soon be set loose.
Can
anyone survive being lost in Luntharda?
No
amount of training has prepared Jaevid Broadfeather for the frontlines of
battle. Now facing the true horrors of war, with Luntharda looming on the
horizon, Jaevid has begun to question everything he thought about his heritage.
The only thing keeping him going is his oath to protect his dragonrider
brothers. But in an instant, even that slips through Jaevid’s fingers as he
steps from the safety of his dragon’s saddle into the depths of his mother’s
wild homeland—the kingdom of the gray elves.
Stranded
in Luntharda with his partner, Lieutenant Jace Rordin, Jaevid must finally
confront the demons of his own past as he uncovers the truth about a war that
began before he was ever born. Armed with a new appreciation for destiny, and
flanked by his trusted friends, Jaevid moves to make the final strike against
an enemy that has hidden in plain sight for far too long.
One
kingdom’s traitor will become the world’s last hope.
Guest Post:
Is there an author
past or present that may have inspired you to write? If yes please tell us who
this author is and how they may have inspired you?
I was an avid reader as a child, so there were lots of
authors who influenced and inspired me to begin writing my own stories. Two
stand out in my mind above the others, however. The first would be J. R. R.
Tolkien, whose books I fell in love with as a young child. My mother, God bless
her, read them to me even though fantasy wasn’t really her thing at the time.
But Tolkien’s world where elves were not impish, nasty creatures but beings of
beauty, power, and light was very appealing to me. He had it all. Heroes.
Dragons. Knights. Magic. Everything my young mind craved in an adventure. The
second author who inspired me was Bruce Coville, who wrote my favorite
childhood book of all time: JEREMY THATCHER DRAGON HATCHER. Yes, I liked
dragons a lot. I read this book over and over. I actually checked it out of the
local library so many times my mother finally bought a copy of my own—which I
still have!
