E. E. Knight Livres

Trois dragons meurtris par les épreuves qu’ils ont dû affronter pour devenir adultes. Ils sont parmi les derniers d’une espèce à l’agonie, son ultime espoir. Depuis toujours, les trois frères et sœur luttent pour survivre – AuRon, le gris dépourvu d’écailles qui se méfie de tous, Wistala la verte à la tête d’un ordre de farouches guerrières, et RuGaard le cuivré, le banni devenu empereur. Après avoir livré une guerre qui leur a coûté terres, amis, familles et honneur, ils se sont retirés loin de tout. Mais l’ordre qu’ils ont eu tant de mal à instaurer est en train de s’effondrer. Les trois dragons devront de nouveau unir leurs forces pour sauver les leurs de l’extinction avant que le chaos ne les emporte tous, et le monde avec eux.

Au plus profond d'une caverne, dans les montagnes, naît une couvée de dragons. Les quatre petits appartiennent à une espèce en voie d'extinction : ils sont le dernier espoir de survie de leur peuple. Mais des nains font irruption et sèment la mort dans la caverne. Seul le jeune Auron parvient à s'échapper. Spécimen rare de dragon gris sans écailles, uniquement armé de son esprit, de ses griffes et d'un instinct de survie sans limite, il décide de partir en quête de ses semblables. C'est le début d'un long périple dans un monde dangereux, peuplé d'elfes mercenaires et d'humains violents, où il rencontrera des alliés improbables et découvrira sa véritable nature.

Je suis Wistala, la dragonelle chasseuse, la vengeresse verte et silencieuse fendant les cieux... Ainsi parle sitôt libérée de son 'oeuf la jeune Wistala, l'un des quatre dragons nés au plus haut des montagnes. Dernière née d'une espèce à l'agonie, la fratrie apprendra tout de l'héritage qui lui revient grâce à une mère dévouée et un père protecteur. Jusqu'au jour funeste où leur sanctuaire est pris d'assaut par une horde de nains. Leur mère les pousse alors vers la liberté tout en se sacrifiant pour sauver leurs vies. Wistala se retrouve dans le monde d'En-Haut seule avec Auron, son frère gris et dépourvu d'écailles. Bientôt livrée à elle-même, Wistala doit surmonter sa terreur, son chagrin pour se lancer à la recherche de ses semblables... et abattre sa fureur sur ceux qui s'emploient à les exterminer...

As a young dragoneer moves through the ranks of the prestigious Serpentine Academy, her challenges grow greater and her time grows short to draw out a series of deadly threats, in this thrilling coming-of-age fantasy novel. Sixteen-year-old Ileth is now an Apprentice Dragoneer, with all of the benefits and pitfalls that her elevation in rank entails. But her advancement becomes less certain after she's attacked by an unknown enemy, and Ileth begins to suspect that someone deadly may be hiding within the walls of the academy. Outside of the walls there is a different challenge. The Rari Pirates are strangling the Vale Republic. What they lack in dragon firepower, they make up for in the brutality of their ever-expanding raids, making hostages or slaves of the Republic’s citizens. Surrounded by enemies, Ileth will need to learn what kind of dragoneer she wants to be. And as she makes decisions about her future, Ileth will have the chance to uncover the secrets of her past. Both will irrevocably change the course of her life.

Fleeing a group of slave-trading dwarves, Wistala, a young female dragon, finds herself alone after her brother sacrifices himself to save her and must overcome her grief to find others of her own kind and seek revenge.

David Valentine returns to the Ozark Free Territory, prepared to fight and die rather than surrender to the enemy, and leads a brave group of soldiers on a dangerous mission to take down the Kurian Order and restore peace to his homeland. Original.

When a battle against the enemy goes horribly wrong, Lt. David Valentine is forced to resign from the Wolves and becomes a Cat, an elite warrior trained to spy on the Reapers, and now, serving under Smoke, Valentine must go up against the Twisted Cross--a strike force of alien-human hybrids. Original.

In the first book in an exciting new coming-of-age fantasy series from the author of the Age of Fire series, an impoverished girl enters into a military order of dragonriders, but her path won't be as easy or as straightforward as she expected. Fourteen-year-old Ileth grew up in an orphanage, and thanks to her stutter was never thought to be destined for much beyond kitchen work and cleaning. But she's dreamed of serving with the dragons ever since a childhood meeting with a glittering silver dragon and its female dragoneer. For years she waits, and as soon as she is old enough to join, Ileth runs away to become a novice dragoneer at the ancient human-dragon fortress of the Serpentine. While most of her fellow apprentices are from rich and influential families, Ileth must fight for her place in the world, even if it includes a duel with her boss at the fish-gutting table. She's then sent off to the dragon-dancers after a foolish kiss with a famously named boy and given charge of a sickly old dragon with a mysterious past. But she finds those trials were nothing when she has to take the place of a dead dragoneer and care for his imprisoned dragon in enemy lands. . . .

Returning from three years of exile, David Valentine reluctantly joins forces with the Marshal, a legendary and autocratic resistance fighter with a personal vendetta, to free the Lightweavers--allies of humankind--imprisoned by a Kurian overlord.

The race is on to claim the area between the Ohio River and Tennessee. What's left of the resistance is hiding out in the tangle of central Kentucky hills-leaving the powerful, well-organized Kurian vampires the opportunity to fill the void. Major David Valentine knows a small group of fierce, freedom-loving allies who would be glad to settle the rich lands. But they're more than three hundred miles away, with hostile aliens and vicious human slavers standing between. But even if by some miracle they make it, the Kurian Order isn't about to easily yield the blood-soaked Kentucky soil...
