Prince Corin has been chosen to free the dragons from their bondage to the Empire, but dragons aren’t big on directions. They have given him some of their power, but none of their knowledge. No one, not the dragons nor their riders, is even sure what keeps the dragons in the Empire’s control. Tam, sensible daughter of a well-respected doctor, had no idea before she arrived in the capital that she is a Seer, gifted with visions. When the two run into each other (quite literally) in the library, sparks fly and Corin impulsively asks Tam to dinner. But it’s not all happily ever after.

If something seems too good to be true, it probably is. Vampires are charming, but that’s because, like everyone else, they need to eat. And if an extremely powerful entity makes a deal with you, they ain’t doing it for the warm fuzzies. And when that powerful entity tells you to rewrite 10 years of history after your journals go missing, you do it.
