Dragon Prince is the first book in the series of the same name. The story begins as Rohan has just become the prince of the Desert and ruler of the kingdom. His family has ruled this area ever sine the Long Sands spewed fire and now it is his time to take the mantle. He has two goals in mind as he takes his post: to bring peace to his world and to save the last remaining dragons of the land as they may be the salvation of his people. Sioned was fated by Fire to marry Rohan. She has mastered magic and has been catching hints of trouble ahead. With trouble all around Prince Rohan, she’ll need to help if she wants to save him and stop a war that could take over the world.

Exiles is the first book in a series, also called Exiles. Long ago, the Mageborns left to colonize the plant Lenfell and escape from prejudice. Things weren’t all good on the planet though as a war broke out between Mageborn factions that polluted all and unleashed the hideous Wraithenbeasts. Generations later, the people are starting to recover but magic is only practiced under strict conditions. The peace is not guaranteed though as the rivalry between Mage Guardians and the Lords of Malerris wages on.
