Dragons
rule the world. Princess Morgan Talbot of Esterhaven knows one rules
her. Rownar, the most powerful dragon of all, forced a magical bond
with her at a tender age. He intends to corrupt her soul, then
consume her body. Now of age, Morgan knows she must take back her
life and defeat Rownar, and all his kind. Connor O'Malley is the
greatest dragon slayer alive. He spends one memorable night with
Morgan, never thinking to see her again. Until he does. He is deeply
shaken to learn the woman he fell for is a princess and determined to
conquer Rownar herself. When Connor offers to train her, Morgan
reluctantly accepts. Now an epic battle will begin, for a princess's
life, her soul, her kingdom, and the world.
Excerpt:
As
they cautiously navigated through the hoard, Morgan detected a slight
glow in her peripheral vision. It flared up, then subsided. As they
stepped forward, she discerned it again, and this time she whipped
around quickly enough to see a small magical symbol etched in the
floor behind them light up, then dim.
“Oh
no,” she murmured.
“What’s
wrong?” Connor demanded in a sharp tone.
She
paced further and showed him. “I think if Meglos doesn’t already
know we are here, he will soon.”
As
if on cue, deep within the cave, the sound of an almighty clang of
metal meeting metal filled their ears. Then came a roar, the kind
which could only be made by a dragon.
Morgan
knew her eyes must be wide as saucers, but she couldn’t seem to
help it or move at all, in fact. Horror rooted her to the spot,
unable even to speak, much less move.
Connor
was not so afflicted. “Run!”
When
she didn’t twitch so much as an eyelash, he yelled, “Run,
Morgan!”
The
volume of his words, his manner, and most of all, the use of her
name, snapped her out of her panicked shock at last. She went from
utter stillness to moving faster than she ever had in her life.
The
dragon, shrieking and breathing fire all the while, flew after them.
