This coming of age, epic fantasy occurs at the twilight of primal beings and the emergence of man. Wizards, witches, elves, dwarves, trolls, ogres, orcs, dragons, and new fantastic creatures still interact with men in this classic struggle between good and evil.
The Dragon Ring opens in a politically charged kingdom on the Powterosian continent. The reigning queen has recently ascended the throne at the insistence of the nobility who forced her corrupt brother to abdicate. The former queen, a soulless upstart, ruthlessly schemed to attain power and position. The sudden loss of status has unhinged her. She’s resorted to witchcraft to destroy her sister-in-law and the royal family to regain the throne. Caught in the middle are the royal children including young Prince Saxthor, the second son and spare heir.
The unexpected discovery of Saxthor’s unique powers aggravates the political conflict. The witch feels threatened and attempts to kill Saxthor shattering his carefree world. His mentor wizard sends Prince Saxthor racing into exile that he might survive to grow into his mysterious powers. But he’s followed.
The witch also has a co-conspirator, a ruthless warlock. He’s using her for an end she’s unaware of. The sorcerers draw in the ultimate personification of power, dragons, bending them to good or evil in the conflict for ultimate control. Only Saxthor can alter the looming war’s outcome.
Can Saxthor survive his pursuers’ attacks? Will he overcome his own doubts and rebuild lost confidence? Will his character develop and restore his self-assurance sufficient to face his worst fear? He will need exceptional character to control his unique gifts without succumbing to them. This epic provides fantasy entertainment atop undercurrents of political and psychological depth.

Cleve’s Review:

There is nothing like reading a good fantasy, this meets all requirements. There is a hero, a witch, and a wizard. The writing is superb, leaving the reader clutching a sword and wanting to join in the action. Five out of Five Stars.

A thousand specially selected people left an Earth that was troubled and no longer sustainable. Their dream was a new start on a virgin planet thirty years away.
The ship was state-of-the-art and almost totally automatic; its passengers safely sleeping through the journey – but something has gone wrong. Terribly wrong.
AL CLARK wakes to begin a new life, alone in a place he does not recognize and no memory of what transpired to place him there.
Today is day one – the beginning of a quest that will take him to places he could not have imagined, manage feats he would not have thought possible, and discover the true value of friendship.

Cleve’s Review:

This is a fascinating tale of courage and the never ending desire to survive. Al Clark awakens to find his memory of who he is gone. With little to go on he searches for himself and a life he vaguely remembers. I give this book 5 out of 5 stars…excellent!
