At the advice of an outcast seer, Anzig sets out across the mountains with seven drakes for companions. He has been tasked to retrieve the legendary artefact, the Axinstone, for without it, dragonkind seems doomed to fall. Book 1: The Destiny of Dragons, and the first entry in the Farenar Series. less

The Axinstone has been reclaimed, but at what cost? Anzig is wounded after fending off the monstrous Nightwings, but he still expects a joyous return to draconic lands. He does not anticipate the secrets that await him, ready to shatter his life apart. Meanwhile, Ellian struggles to adapt to life outside Laxtal. She yearns to return, unsure if Ddraig Tsona is to be trusted with her clan. Does she confront him and risk humiliation, or sit back and wait for Anzig to return?

The Western clans have united. Behind Anzig is an army greater than any draconic clan has ever mustered, and they are bolstered further by strange creatures from beyond their borders. But Anzig falters. His mind is breaking, torn by the revelations of his identity and weighed down by his magic. A spectre stalks in his shadow. Ellian knows she must make a choice. The fate of dragonkind is at stake, but she fears she will be the one to shatter Anzig’s mind for good. Their army must fly... moreThe Western clans have united.
