SEVEN INTERTWINED STORIES OF
MAGIC, LOVE, AND WAR

Onaia ― A world of seven known realms separated by deep ocean waters. One sits bound in ice and inaccessible. The second is denied to all by powers unimaginable. Five more realms are each populated by vastly different peoples.

Across the Iron Realm, the land of human dominions, thousands share the same dream each night of the birth of a new star and a new deity ― Junari, a reluctant prophet, leads thousands of believers toward the Forbidden Realm, following the new star and the goddess who speaks through her voice ― Tin-Tsu, a prince turned priest, assumes the throne as unseen enemies attempt to end his rule by ending his life ― Sao-Tauna, an extraordinary young girl, is hunted by soldiers and protected by Sha-Kutan, a fugitive with unearthly powers and a dark past ― Sketkee, a reptilian philosopher from the Sun Realm, seeks to uncover the mysteries of a stolen ancient artifact ― Kellatra, a brilliant seer, flees with an indecipherable lost book from those who will kill her and her family to possess it ― Leotin, the leader of a carnival of rogues, struggles keep his people alive while trapped in a castle under siege ― And Ondromead, a man who cannot die, awakens each morning in a new place to behold events he cannot fathom.

With their lives irrevocably intertwined and altered, they all ask the same question: Will the goddess from the dreams truly appear, and what will happen if she does?

The Dragon Star is an epic fantasy adventure with a gripping story, an intricate plot, a large cast of finely drawn characters, and a richly detailed world. The book includes a hyperlinked Miscellany of Fragments and Artifacts (a cultural glossary) and a hyperlinked gazetteer of the world. Additionally, the chapters of the novel are hyperlinked to allow the reader to separately follow individual story arenas as well as individual character storylines.

The invitation to join the secretive Guadel should have been the fulfillment of dreams Va’del didn’t even realize he had. When his sponsors are killed in an ambush a short time later, he instead finds his probationary status revoked, and becomes a pawn between various factions inside the Guadel ruling body. Jain’s never known any life but that of a Guadel in training. She’d thought herself reconciled to the idea of a loveless marriage for the good of her people, but meeting Va’del changes everything. Their growing attraction flies against hundreds of years of precedent, but as wide-spread attacks threaten their world, the Guadel have no choice but to use even Jain and Va’del in their fight for survival.
