Dragon's Legacy by Morgana Starr

0 comentários
"Dragon's Legacy is a multi-faceted gem which enchants and captivates the imagination of the reader, while presenting timeless truths in a beautiful new way."

By Amber

Flaming fire spews forth from an enraged dragon battling evil men, as the earth splits open devouring those that seek to escape. Returning to her cave home Mary, the dragon, transforms to her female human form and greets her human friend, Charlie.

During their many adventures, narrow escapes and rescue attempts they wonder if prejudice and fear can ever be overcome in order to bring healing and unconditional love to their land. Evil dragons battle humans as Maalock, the Dragon of War tries to protect them. Will the dragons be able to protect humans from their evil counterparts? Who will finally fulfill the Ancient Dragon Prophesy?

“Blood of the dragons flows in him strong,

Knowing to Creator, he always belongs,

Son of the King rescued from the tower,

Seventh generation will come into power,

He will bring to our land justice and peace,

Then all wars and turmoil at last will cease.”

Excerpt from Dragons Legacy, Chapter Two

“Mary lifted her. hands to the sky. Immediately the wind started blowing, as she murmured softly in an ancient language. The air around her shimmered and a misty haze lifted from the ground, as her hair streamed out behind her in the wind. Straining his eyes, Charlie struggled to make out Mary’s form. He saw her shape grow and expand until his sight was filled with a dragon more beautiful than he could have imagined even in his wildest dreams. Her multicolored scales glinted in the sun, scattering rainbows all around.”

The Popular Fiction Report by WD

Wriders Digest has reaveled its The Popular Fiction Report. Here is small excert relating to Fantasy Literature :

"Science Fiction/Fantasy
Perhaps it’s the nature of the beast, but science fiction and fantasy are tough to pin down. Among the many distinct sub-genres, however, the most prevalent trend is the return of “urban fantasy,” which Harper Collins Voyager Publishing Director Jane Johnson describes as “the supernatural erupting into the everyday—sexy, tongue-in-cheek, post-modern.” The best example of this resurging genre, says Johnson (aka Jude Fisher), is the work of Kim Harrison.

Crawford Kilian, author of Writing Science Fiction and Fantasy, puts in a strong vote for the alternate history genre, typified by Michael Chabon’s The Yiddish Policemen’s Union, and the books of Harry Turtledove. The genre is also marked by the prevalence of long series with recurring characters. “It’s established authors like Turtledove who sell most consistently,” Kilian says. “That’s because they’ve now got large readerships impatient for the next volume in the latest interminable saga.”

The Path of Daggers Audio Book - Fantasy at Its Finest

0 comentários
"Robert Jordan certainly should be given credit for the amazing energy he has infused into the fantasy genre. This audio book is not a dry or boorish reading of the material, instead, it is an invigorating read that can completely captivate the listener in the same manner that the novel can captivate a reader."

A Look at Heroines in Epic Fantasy

0 comentários
" In the early days of epic fantasy women were often characterized as damsels in distress and nothing more than window dressing for heroes to rescue. This didn’t last long as a host of writers created memorable female characters that were skilled swordswomen, capable world conquerers, and adventurers in their own right – yet still alluring. This article introduces you to some of the best heroines that have appeared in epic fantasy over the past several decades."
