(4) | None | Torsere: Book One Over two hundred years ago, when dragons were hunted for their blood, the King of Torsere offered them sanctuary. In return, the dragons bestowed a magical gift on the King's people, allowing those born with the mark to become dragon riders and forge a mental connection between dragon and rider. King Ryneq of Torsere is undeniably attracted to Nykin, a young dragon rider. Ryneq's sister, Cerylea, encourages him to pursue the relationship. But with the stresses of ruling Torsere, a romantic attachment is low on Ryneq's list of priorities. Nykin admires the king from afar, but wants more than to warm his bed for a night or two. Torsere remains under threat from the lowland armies of Rodeth and Athisi. To protect their kingdom, Ryneq and Cerylea intend to form an alliance with the elves through Cerylea's marriage to elf prince Morkryn. On the road to the wedding, the lowland army attacks the party. Cerylea escapes, but Ryneq is captured and taken to the impenetrable Risvery Castle. In the aftermath, Nykin volunteers for a perilous mission, endangering the lives of him and his dragon. The odds are against him, but Nykin will risk everything for his duty and his king.… (more) |
