“Twenty-five years ago, there was a war against mages,” writes Presler. “Most of the mages on the continent of Pilanor had been killed. Now there is a new king in power. King Eric the Breaker has his people’s blood checked at the age of sixteen. If they are found to have powerful mage blood, they’re removed from the population.
“Alexandria Adameier’s sixteenth birthday is only months away. The king pays a visit to the Adameier family in the Northwest Territory. Lord Jacob Adameier is the ruling lord of the Northwest Territory, a lordship given to him by the king.
“Alexandria, Jacob’s eldest daughter, learns she has very powerful mage blood, known as dragon blood. Dragon blood is the most powerful mage blood in Pilanor. The king is afraid of what this could mean for Pilanor. Alexandria, along with her handmaiden Riley Long and her younger brother Taylon, try to escape the king’s wrath.
“The journey will take the group across the Northwest Territory as they try and find Alex’s grandmothers in the Black Tooth Mountains. Follow the epic journey of a young girl learning to use her newfound powers as she tries to survive the harsh landscape of the Northwest Territory.”
