I am half of a whole. A dragon without a ryder. My kind are on the brink of extinction, I should be out there fighting, leading the flyers of the First Kingdom. But without my ryder I’m grounded. She was the key to my magic and my future. But as soon as I found her she was stolen away, hidden somehow from even our bond’s pull. I’d searched the Twelve Kingdoms for over a decade and lost all hope. Until my brother discovered her—living in a cult in the middle of nowhere, growing the very poison that’s killing my kind. Raised with no knowledge of magic or creatures like me, she thinks I’m a monster from her nightmares come to life. Admittedly, kidnapping her probably wasn’t my best move, but I had to get her out of there. Now I need to convince her the life she knew was a lie, but time is slipping away. If she doesn’t accept who she is and learn to harness her power, it will consume her—leaving me ryderless again. She wants to go back to that lie of a life I rescued her from. Too bad we didn’t leave anything to go back to. But the more she refuses the truth, the closer I get to losing her again. So I make her an offer she can’t refuse. Only, I don’t know how I’ll keep my end of the bargain, because I can’t let her go now I’ve found her. She is more than just my ryder. But that’s a secret for another day. We have training to do. Lesson Ryde or die. Welcome to the First Kingdom.

My life has a plan. And not one that involves a dragon. I have work to do. Obligations. I’m a healer and my duty is to the Forest Kingdom. I absolutely don’t have time for diversions, or to learn to be a dragon ryder. I already have magic, I don't need to learn more. I do not have time for the complications he brings to my life. But I’m losing my best friend to madness and without him the Twelve Kingdoms will fall to the undead. And the only one who can help me find a way to help him is the irresistibly, frustratingly, attractive dragon who is knocking my life off course. Only I find I need Jaxus more than I thought possible, and maybe he is the key to unlock the parts of me that can cure Nyx and save us all. Because he knows a lot more than your average flyer. And in my world, knowledge is power. Welcome to the Forest Kingdom.

I’m a warrior, the most skilled dragon to wield a sword since my mother put her mark on the Kingdom’s history, but I’m not allowed to take my place without a Ryder. Yes, I’m a dud. A ryderless dragon. And I’m stuck in this palace, surrounded by dragons fulfilling their destiny, while I pass the days teaching them the skills to defend the kingdoms, unable to fulfill mine. I’m letting my entire line of storm dragons down. Until he turns up. Luka is like no one I’ve ever met. A breath of fresh air, but I’m not sure I can trust him. He seems to be on the wrong side of everything. Walking in the shadows and making secret deals. But when he discovers dragon’s eggs are being moved in secret, I have no choice but to throw myself into his clandestine world. I have to trust him to show me the worst parts of the kingdoms so we can find who’s stealing the eggs. The trouble with the shadows is, they hide a lot more than we bargained for.
