Savage begins the Dragonrider Legacy series, a thrilling companion to the international bestselling Dragonrider Chronicles.
Never send a hero to do a monster’s job.
Forty years have passed since Jaevid Broadfeather brought peace to Maldobar and Luntharda. But that fragile truce will be tested as darkness gathers on the horizon. The vicious armies of the Tibran Empire have crossed the far seas and are threatening to destroy Maldobar completely. Not even the dragonriders can match the Tibran war machines. And after an attempt to awaken Jaevid from his divine sleep fails, the fate of Maldobar is looking grim.
Reigh has never known what it means to be a normal human. Raised amongst the gray elves in the wild jungle of Luntharda, he’s tried everything to fit in. But the dark power within him is bursting at the seams—refusing to be silenced. And while his adoptive father, Kiran, insists this power must be kept secret, Reigh knows he’s running out of time.
As Maldobar burns, the world is desperate for a new hero. Destiny has called, and one boy will rise to answer.

Guest Post-World Building
World building in this series has been a total blast—mostly because I’m getting to delve deeper into what was introduced in the first series. Not to say you HAVE to have read The Dragonrider Chronicles to get this book. You totally don’t. But I am taking what I started there and making it richer, fuller, and really digging into the history of the world.
World building is honestly something I really enjoy. I always start with a map, because geography has such an impact on the way a culture develops, and I go from there. The Maldobar we see in this book is in the midst of rebirth. They’ve just seen the death of a tyrant and the end of a brutal era of war. As the cultures of the humans and elves begin to mesh, Maldobar is redefining itself. Not that all the change has been easy. It’s hard to overcome 20 years of war and hatred. But the proper encouragement and motivations made by those in power have helped to fan the flames of positivity and fuel a new sense of pride and comradery. That may be the only thing that saves them from the foreign threat that the Tibran Empire presents!
