For readers of all ages.
I woke up, gasping for air. I saw destruction; I saw
terrified faces, and so much Fire. Everything was alight, but yet it was
surrounded by such darkness. Voices, with sonorous tones swimming in sorrow and
regret floated in the air. The time has now come. The time has now come. I was drowning in my own sweat. These
nightmares were not unusual; they had become an almost nightly occurrence. What
was I to do? What was my destiny? I felt
the flow of the Ancestors. Soon, it would be time. IT WOULD BE TIME.

ages and from all backgrounds, to be the change we want to see in the world.
When Oppie and Aurie are faced with a terrible battle between good and
evil, they discover that friendship and sisterhood are the most
precious things in the world.
In a realm where magic and legend still exist, it's easy to think that
when you're just an ordinary girl, you'll never get the chance to be
written into the history books. But when Oppie, and her dragon friend
Aurie, find themselves on a mission to defeat the evil, oppressive
forces of darkness, in the form of the dragon, Royzendeus, they
discover that history is never made alone. As they travel, their army
of light grows, and Aurie discovers that as a girl, she is blessed
with an entire sisterhood she never realised existed.
