Synopsis

FIRST IN THE NEW EPIC FANTASY SERIES, WULF'S SAGA. STUNNING COVER ART BY SPECTRUM AWARD WINNER DANIEL DOS SANTOS. Sixteen-year-old third son of a duke in an alternate Viking-like medieval America must face invasion by confederates of a colonial Roman empire based on vampiric blood slavery. The Dragon of Shenandoah wasn't supposed to be calling. Wulf von Dunstig was so far down the succession list, he wasn't even spare to the heir! But calling it was. As the third son of the ruler of the Mark of Shenandoah, Wulf should not have inherited the ruler's complete bond with the giant dragon that lay under his land. He was into reading sagas and ranger lore, after all. Visions and rule were for his brother Otto. Yet when Wulf is secretly compelled to bond with the land-dragon, he finds himself thrust into a terrible new reality. Darkness is rising. Wulf's one chance to halt an invasion of evil is a weapon forged in the heart of a dragon and lost to the world centuries ago. Find it and hope for freedom remains. Lose it, and the dragons-along with the world they made-will fall into endless darkness. That weapon's name? The Dragon Hammer.

I loved book one, and book two was just as good as book one, though seemed not quite there.  I have never before read Tony......more

Goodreads review by Sofia

I had higher hopes for this. The story was fairly predictable, which made it a lot less exciting. There was some really cool world-building elements (the whole elves/star/drauger/dragon stuff) but it fell a little flat to me? I would have rather'd the story from Ravenelle (or Ursel's or Grer's) pov,......more

Goodreads review by Jon

This is an intriguing middle age like romp of a young man coming of age in a peaceful-turned-violent land. Despite the young man’s insecurity, he soon learns others are looking to him for decisions, and he is forced to grow up quickly. The characters in this novel are unique, suspenseful, charming an......more

Goodreads review by John

I'm not sure how I feel about this book. The characters were ok, and some were even interesting, but something, and I can't pick what that is, just didn't gel for me. It's a story of an heir that is third in line, not expected to inherit, who suddenly finds himself ruling the kingdom of Shenandoah.......more
