The Lost World is a story where all times are combined, crossing all the real and imaginary borders of existence.

"Your destiny is calling to you. I can hear its song on the wind." In the secluded swamp of the Shadestalker tribes, Ash always felt like an outcast. To a village of dragons who hide in the shadows, his glittering scales mark him as different. When an accident during his rite of passage leads to him unleashing his dormant powers, he learns a horrifying truth: he's not a Shadestalker at all, but a Firebreather. To make matters worse, the Firebreather kingdom was destroyed by the Ironscale empire thirteen years ago, and its dragons scattered across the continent of Drakona.

A single failure has turned Prince Pike’s world inside out; stripped of rank and expelled from the military academy, his world crumbles further as his father issues a command to the imperial scions: “Enya, Princess of the Firebreathers, must die.” Meanwhile, Ash is on a new journey all his own. His aunt Enya has made a home for herself in the Earthshaper Fiefdoms, so with Scout and Albuca by his side, that is where he’s headed. But the road is rough, and if Ash wants to make it to the Fiefdoms, they’ll have to travel through the perilous deserts of the Burning Lands.

Kira's earliest memories are of living alone and wild in the woods. She has no idea how long she was on her own or what she had to do to survive, but she remembers the moment that Cady Bennett and one of her search-and-rescue dogs found her. Adopted into the Bennett family, Kira still struggles with human interaction years later, but she excels at the family business: search-and-rescue. Then Cady's estranged father asks for her help in locating a missing child—one of several visitors who has disappeared in the Sierra Glades National Park in the past 12 months.

Samara is chosen to train with the Sacred Flame coterie—an elite magical order where apprentices bond with familiars to become unstoppable sorcerers. For her, this is more than an honor—it's her family's only way out of poverty. But there's a catch. Samara has no familiar. Without one, she's as good as powerless. Her opponents tower over her, her future grows uncertain, and her failure could doom not just herself, but those she loves. Then she meets a grumpy dragon with a sharp tongue. He doesn't want a human companion—but fate might not care.

Emelyne is a human raised in a dwarven village. In her world, nothing about that is abnormal. Yet whenever one of the people with brilliant-colored hair is near, her dwarven parents insist she hides. She doesn't understand why until one of them kills her childhood friend in cold blood. After bonding with a dragon and meeting some unusual characters, she discovers truths about her past. In light of this, she sets out on a journey to rebuild a village and rise against the coterie, fueled by a desire to avenge her friend.

Danger lurks everywhere, as hope blows in the breeze. Sorcerer's apprentice Samara is elated by the rescue of the dragons, but that feeling is soon squashed as the risks of being caught increase. Not knowing who in the Sacred Flame coterie is involved has Samara on edge, especially when she and her dragon, Ulrieg, are spotted in places they shouldn't be. Powerful head sorceress Callista embarks on a journey to find a sacred crystal to add to her collection, taking Samara and a couple of other apprentices.

After Samara makes a shocking discovery, something must be done. She can't leave the coterie, or her family will again face poverty. If she stays, she must discover who is committing these horrendous acts. Two senior commanders who patrol the borders of the human and elven kingdoms visit. The young apprentices soon discover that these two aren't as friendly as their instructors. They employ all kinds of sadistic mind games and revel in inflicting pain. In the trials the apprentices face, lives are lost, and many more are on the line.
