About this series
To unite a fractured kingdom, a reluctant hero must rise.
Neill has been charged with the impossible task of bringing the Middle Kingdom together to fight the burgeoning threat posed by the rogue sorcerer Ansall and his dragon Zaxx. Neill longs for his old life as a mere foot soldier for his father responsible only for his family's wellbeing, and is unsure about whether he is fit to lead an army. Neill's contemplative nature forces him to consider every aspect of the problems he faces, but often makes it difficult for him to take action—and failure to act could mean the deaths of many.
Now, echoing Char and their dragon Paxala, his duty beckons him to lead the Dragon Riders—and take his rightful place as king—but with doubt and new enemies creeping in, his resolve will be tested. When the mysterious Dark Prince arrives with an offer, Neill will have to make a decision that could change the course of history.
As Ansall grows in strength by harnessing black magic, Neill must choose between his own desires and the welfare of the entire kingdom. Can he rise to the challenge before it's too late?

- Dragon God: The First Dragon Rider, #1
1
The new world is calling... Neill Torvald is desperate to prove himself—his father's warlord kingdom depends on him. When a vicious attack on the way to the Draconis Order monastery nearly kills him, it becomes clear that grave trials await him on this path. Jodreth, the wise monk who saves his life, advises caution upon entering the sacred halls. His mission is to learn arcane magic from the monks that will help to cement his father's power, but Neill will need more than magical arts alone to navigate the challenges before him. Among the monks' students, Neill meets the lovely and mysterious Char, who senses evil deep within the ranks of the Draconis Order's members. She takes him to a dragon she has raised, Paxala, and the three of them become fast friends. Neill soon grows in strength as he and his fellow students gain ancient knowledge, and his closeness to Char blossoms into something more. But when Neill 's brothers grow impatient and attack the monastery in a bid to seize power, he will have to decide where his loyalties lie: with his warlord father's domain, or the new friends he has made in the wider world.
- Dragon Dreams: The First Dragon Rider, #2
2
Sometimes, the past is best left behind… Char longs for peace and escape, preferring her dreams to the ugly realities of an uncertain age. As an illegitimate daughter of the North Prince, Char has always felt deep insecurity, but she must put that aside when Zaxx gives her the task of retrieving an ancient crown from her family's palace. If she brings him this crown, he says, he will allow the dragon hoard to choose their riders. When her father sends for her to return home, fearing war, she senses an opportunity. But Char's dragon Paxala has grander ideas—she wants to become the greatest of all dragons and defeat the ancient Zaxx. But she can't do it without Char's guidance and aid. Employing patience and skill, Char will have to learn the secrets of dragon lore hidden away in her father's archives before Zaxx's suspicions turn aggressive. With the help of her love, Neill, Char discovers the secret of the old queen's crown in her father's castle, learning a tale of dark magic steeped in blood. But when her father wishes to marry her off to the leader of the Wildmen, the fate of Torvald will depend on her difficult choice: accept the role she has always played, or learn to trust her own power.
