Summary
The Dragon Riders survived King Galbatorix's extermination attempt. Thanks to the efforts of the Shadeslayers and their dragons, the Riders were rebuilt and reformed. The Riders have endured hundreds more years of struggle and strife, yet their primary mission has not changed: to keep the peace and promote the well-being of all sentient kind. In the modern age, most humans would tell you that any story of elves and dragons and magic is only a fairy tale. 17-year-old Shane Embry would have said the same until he learned the truth: dragons are very, very real. In a bigger, wider world where humans have forgotten the elder races, technology has all but taken over the role of magic, and wars are no longer fought with swords and ballistae, the newest of the Riders will have to learn fast in order to carry out his heavy responsibility. Read on for a tale that blends all the key fantasy elements such as dragons, magic, and a hero's journey with all the action of modern combat, the realities of a realistic, relatable world, and the intrigue of the Riders' history between their exile from Alagaësia and now.
