In a time long past, two brothers fought for supremacy. Legend tells of how Sarlon, the Earth Keeper, stood against his twin, Zorlon, the Earth Speaker. Thousands died before good won out. The birth of a second set of powerful twins versed in earth magic, however, is imminent, and the world trembles.
A Ko'daighan Ranger, Jalyn Sasher, and his cousin Van have a mission: locate the long-awaited twins, and transport them to Dragonfall, where they'll be taught to use their powers and fulfill their destiny.
Da'ghan, a Landian Hunter, has his own task: locate the twins, and kill them before they ignite a second great war. Skilled beyond his seventeen years, Da'ghan would be a perfect killer were it not for his distaste for wanton murder.
Jalyn's and Da'ghan's destinies are about to intersect. Forced to work together despite distrust, the two find themselves standing between the newborns and those who would harm them-or use their power for their own ends.
An epic fantasy in the vein of David Eddings's Belgariad series, The Dragon King Rises introduces readers to a vibrant new fantasy world where good and evil aren't as clearly delineated as some would like Da'ghan and Jalyn to think.
