Publisher Description

When dragons return, a reluctant student becomes the realm's last hope.

Laric Mason has spent years hiding his magic, content to scrape by with the bare minimum at his local academy. He refuses to chase the legacy left by his grandmother—or the destiny others claim waits for him. A quiet life is all he's ever wanted.

Until the dragons come.

When a fiery assault from the war-hungry realm of Korthal shatters his village, Laric's world burns. His school is gone. His family is gone. And the truth is undeniable: no one else is coming to save them.

To stand against the dragons, Laric must stop running from who he is—and unlock a power even he doesn't fully understand.
