About this series
Only the Gift of the Volcano, born in darkness and fire, can give them the strength they need to conquer fear and fight the mightiest of the Nightmare Legion.
Noren has just narrowly escaped burning alive. Reunited at last, he and Silmavalien flee northwards, while trying to figure out what their relationship is now, after the ways they've both failed. While he and Elninya recover from their recent ordeal, they are joined by Onyxalis, a mysterious obsidian dragon hatchling, who claims to be the destined Avenger of the Dragons.
The hordes of the nightmare are gathering, and the very earth is suffering. It is time for the Dragon-sword to burn again, but the only place its fire can be re-kindled or that Onyxalis can gain the power he needs as the Obsidian Guardian, is the Volcano of Ellen Island.
Even as they journey towards fire, an icy fear tightens around Silmavalien's heart. Can the Volcano give her, too, the assurance she needs for the battle before her?

- DragonBirth: Return of the Dragonriders, #1
1
In a world where dragons are considered demons and Dragonriders are hunted and killed as witches . . . Silmavalien is a devout young woman from a small mountain village. Her engaged, Noren, is teaching her the bow and her life goals are limited to marrying him – as soon as he completes his Manhood Hunt – and having a family. But then she meets a dragon hatchling and discovers a love she could never have dreamed, but one that rips her entire world apart. The gods she has worshiped, everything she has ever been taught or believed, is a monstrous lie, and she's not sure what to believe now. Can she dare to trust Noren with her new secret, even if he is the only person she's ever heard voice doubts about whether the stories are true? If she, or the hatchling Minth, are discovered, both will be burned alive. How can she survive and care for Minth in a wild hostile world – one that is even stranger than she thought? Contains 15 illustrations by the author.
- DragonWing: Return of the Dragonriders, #2
2
An ancient war to which the fates of nations are nothing is waged around them. Whether they ignore it or not, their souls are at stake, and their choices will shape their fate. After nearly starving underground, Silmavalien has found a safe place for herself and her dragons to grow in peace. The weather is temperate, and the dragons are finally able to hunt for themselves. But the nightmare is coming for her, and the battle against fear is not one she's sure she even wants to win. Far away, Noren's dragon has hatched, and he finally knows why Silmavalien left him, but he can't understand why she did not trust him. Still, he tries to find her and struggles to hide Elninya, his growing dragon, from those who would kill her. But his fear could turn him into the monster he fears, and his real enemy isn't the humans who would burn him alive if they knew about Elninya. Illustrated by the author.

Raina Nightingale
Raina Nightingale has been writing fantasy since she could write stories with the words she could read (the same time that she started devouring books, too). Now she writes “slice of life” and epic dawndark fantasy, for fiction lovers interested in rich world-building, characters who feel like real people, and spiritual experiences. Raina thinks giant balls floating in space can have the same magic that fairytales teach us to look for in oak trees and stars. However, she has a lot of universes and while not all of them have giant balls floating in space, most of them have dragons of one sort or another!
