Shadows of Betrayal (Dragons of Vacari #2)
Description
The flames of rebellion burn brighter, and betrayal coils in the shadows of Vacari. As fragile alliances splinter and buried truths claw their way to the surface, dragons and riders alike are ensnared in a treacherous web of deception. Trust falters. Bonds strain. And the choices made in fire and blood will shape not only their survival—but the fate of Vacari itself. Prince Gailen returns to a kingdom on the brink of chaos, burdened by a choice that will define his future. Will he rise to become the dragonrider and leader his people so desperately need, or will doubt and fear hold him back as shadows close in? Keisha, Ong, and their steadfast allies must confront enemies both old and newly risen. Yet not all battles are won by sword or flame. The noble Crystal and Emerald dragons lend their wisdom and might, even as the ominous power of the Black and Obsidian dragons looms on the horizon. As light and shadow collide, dragon and rider will be tested beyond endurance. Loyalties will fracture, and destinies will be forged in the crucible of betrayal. In the end, Vacari’s fate may rest in the hands of a prince who must choose whether to rise—or fall. Comparable works include The Inheritance Cycle
