About this series
For seventeen years, the dragon Jaax has managed to keep Jahrra hidden from the evil Tyrant King in the east, but an inconceivable tragedy and the revelation of a secret kept from her since birth has turned her perfect world on its end. Now, Jahrra must flee Oescienne, the only home she’s ever known, and accept the help of the one being she mistrusts more than anyone else...
With her enemies at her heels and the terrifying truth looming before her, Jahrra will accompany Jaax as they seek refuge in the faraway city of Lidien, a place of enlightenment protected by ancient magic. No longer the hidden child of an ancient prophecy, Jahrra will take the first steps in her role as the savior of Ethoes - a responsibility she neither desires nor readily accepts - while Jaax holds court with those he considers allies in the resistance against the Tyrant King.
But when the City of Light proves to be as vulnerable to evil as Oescienne, Jahrra and her dragon guardian discover their safety to be at risk once again. This time, however, the danger may not be hiding in the shadows beyond the enchanted boundaries of Lidien, but within the very walls meant to keep them safe, festering in the hearts of those they have grown to trust above all others.

- The Finding: An Epic Fantasy Dragon Adventure
Imagine a world as rich as Tolkien's Middle-earth, a plot as multifaceted as Harry Potter, an adventure that rivals Eragon, and characters as memorable and endearing as the denizens of Narnia. The Legend of Oescienne is an epic fantasy series beloved by children and adults alike! A human girl, the only one of her kind, a mighty dragon, sworn to keep her safe, and a destiny that will make them both the greatest legends of their time . . . When the dragon Jaax receives word that a human child has been found in the province of Oescienne, he doesn't dare believe it. Humans have been absent from the world of Ethöes for centuries, cursed by an evil tyrant to live out the remainder of their lives in dragon form. Despite his doubts, Jaax wonders if this girl could be the long-awaited answer to an ancient prophecy, one that promises to put an end to the reign of the dreaded Crimson King once and for all. Hidden away in the province of Oescienne, Jahrra grows up blissfully unaware of who - or what - she is. She's much too busy getting into mischief with her friends, or outsmarting her vile classmates, to worry about faraway tyrants or unanswered prophecies. Yet, the threat to her world isn't as distant as she'd like to think, and her destiny may come calling long before she's ready, a destiny that she alone was born to fulfill. ***Literary Classics Winner for Best Young Adult Series***
- The Beginning: An Epic Fantasy Dragon Adventure
A young heroine, a domineering dragon, and an ancient curse threatening their world... Epic fantasy at its best! "This series, about a girl's life and role as a ward of dragons, rivals Harry Potter in scope. I loved it!" ★★★★★ Twelve years have passed since Jahrra arrived in Oescienne and became the responsibility of the old Korli dragon Hroombra; yet much can happen in twelve years. So far, Jahrra's life has been filled with adventure, danger, friendship and even loss. Despite what she has learned in school and what she has learned from life, she has no idea that she is in fact human, a child of the race that has been absent from the world of Ethöes for five long centuries . . . But the girl's identity must be kept secret, even from Jahrra herself, for if the Tyrant King of the East knew of her existence all would be lost. And as time goes by those responsible for the young human girl grow anxious and cautious, for there is evidence of an unknown danger in their midst; a danger they cannot see or hear, but one they can sense like a bad omen. As Jahrra continues to grow and learn about the world around her, facing personal dangers, challenges and enemies of her own, she will become aware of the prophecy that she is meant to fulfill and what she must sacrifice in order to survive what lies ahead.
- Conquer the Castle: A Legend of Oescienne Short Story
Jahrra and her friends are about to embark upon a very important mission: to steal the flag of their nemesis, Eydeth, in a city-wide game of Conquer the Castle. Their schoolmaster has decided to put on a war game to see if his students have what it takes to survive the real world and Jahrra can't wait to begin the battle. Armed with small crossbows and paint-tipped arrows, she and her classmates will wage war upon one another as they try to capture each other's banners. But Jahrra isn't after just any banner; she wants the golden flag that belongs to Eydeth and his teammates. Will Jahrra and her team be able to outwit and out-maneuver their other classmates in order to win the grand prize; a day off from school and the utter humiliation of their shared enemy? Or will the twins once again make Jahrra the laughing stock of the whole school? Conquer the Castle is an adventurous, and sometimes humorous, short story from the world of Oescienne.
