Description:

Once she was the keeper of a dragon, but then she stole it.

As a runaway slave, Kantees isn't safe anywhere but the need to find out who'd pursuing her, and why, drives her back to her first master.

But when he is unable to give her the answers she needs, and with death at every turn, she has to take what she can and get out.

As her dragon carries her beyond the realms of what she has ever known, her lack of understanding brings her face-to-face with the true power of her enemies. Once more she has to risk everything to keep the promises she wished she had not made.

The second book in the Dragons of Esternes Epic Fantasy series.

Interview with the Author

Q - So, what makes the Dragons of Esternes series special?

A - I don't think there's just one thing that sets them apart because what I wanted to do was to write the kind of book that I like to read when it comes to fantasy. My favourites usually involve dragons and my first read was Anne McCaffreys' Dragonriders of Pern, though movies like Dragonheart and Dragonslayer certainly appealed to me too.

Of course the Dragonflight books aren't technically fantasy but in a similar way the Patterners World, which is where these books are set, also have a very strong scientific background, although in this case it really is pure fantasy.

I don't like books with padding, to be honest, I don't think anyone does. That's one thing you won't find here. The stories are taut and fast-paced, they will keep you turning the pages - there's never a dull moment.

Then with a POC lead character and a wealth of interesting supporting characters, plus a unique take on Dragons themselves I don't think there's much not to like.

Q - What order should I read the books in?

A - There's just the four books and this is the order:

- Rebel Dragon
- Outlaw Dragon
- Heretic Dragon
- Battle Dragon

There is a prequel "Racing Dragon" but that's only available to my newsletter subscribers.

Q - So, who should give these books a try?

A - Anyone who wants a unique approach to fantasy, in a world that is both familiar and utterly different. But ultimately anyone who loved Anne McCaffrey's Pern books, Anne McCaffrey, Christopher Paolini's Eragon series, or writers like Naomi Novik and Robin Hobb. Or maybe they just want to have their own dragons like Daenerys Targaryen.
