A. D. Harper: The Dragon's Legacy Book I Elementals, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

In the icy expanse of Antarctica, where the winds howl like forgotten spirits and the ground is a frozen canvas of white, a secret lies buried beneath layers of ancient ice-a secret that could rewrite history itself. Dr. Tory Novak, a fierce and brilliant paleontologist, stands at the precipice of discovery, her breath misting in the frigid air as she peers into the depths of an anomaly that pulses with otherworldly energy. Beside her, Alex Campbell, her steadfast partner, shares her fervor and ambition, both driven by the tantalizing possibility that dragons, those magnificent beasts of legend, might not be mere figments of imagination.

With a grant from a prestigious museum in Nebraska fueling their quest, they venture into a storm that rages like a tempestuous dragon itself. The swirling snowflakes dance around them as they dig deeper into the ice, hearts pounding with anticipation. But just as they unearth remnants of these ancient creatures, scales glistening like jewels in the harsh light-the earth trembles beneath their feet. The ice cap gives way in a catastrophic collapse, burying their dreams under tons of snow and despair.

Back at Princeton, Tory's spirit wanes under the weight of disappointment when fate intervenes in an unexpected form: Jim, a mysterious figure cloaked in shadows and secrets. He speaks of a hidden vortex that promises escape from her mundane reality and beckons her toward adventure beyond imagination. With trepidation mingled with hope, Tory steps through this portal and finds herself thrust into Asland, the Whispering Forest, a realm where dragons soar through skies painted with hues unseen on Earth and warrior princesses wield power over fire and flight.
At Draconia Academy, surrounded by aspiring dragon riders who share her passion for these elusive beasts, Tory feels alive once more. Yet within this vibrant world lies an undercurrent of darkness; whispers echo through its history like shadows lurking just out of sight. As she delves deeper into this fantastical landscape filled with breathtaking wonders and perilous challenges, she must confront not only her own desires but also the chilling truths that threaten to unravel everything she holds dear.

Will Tory unlock the key to reviving dragons long thought extinct? And what unforeseen consequences await those who dare to tamper with fate? In "The Legacy of Dragons," readers will embark on an exhilarating journey filled with courage, friendship, and relentless pursuit-where every turn unveils new mysteries waiting to be uncovered in realms, where magic reigns supreme!
Tory unlocks the secrets of the dragons but at what price?
