For all her life, Ember Matthews never feared the unknown, only a life that never changed. So when a stranger opens a door to Auchterton, a hidden realm ruled by ancient Houses and older grudges, she chooses to step through.
But choice has consequences.
Auchterton is a realm fractured by ambition: power is a weapon, Loyalty is a currency, and silence hides more than it protects. Magic lives in blood and bone, cities rise on the backs of old secrets, and a rebellion long thought dead is beginning to stir. Some fight to break the old order. Others will kill to preserve it.
And between them all lies a secret worth igniting war.
Drawn into the quiet violence of this realm, Ember must learn quickly who deserves her trust before it becomes a blade turned toward her. Because in Auchterton, secrets don't stay buried-and Ember is no longer invisible. For far beyond the horizon, a man cloaked in black has already begun hunting her name.
Some embers are meant to die. Others are meant to burn.

"You are my daughter, and you have grown up so kind and innocent and just," she said, "You are everything I could have wished for. But it is not enough.

You must become stronger. One day you must become Queen." Lumina, a young thief, is desperate to find her best friend and sister, Reia, when she vanishes one night in the woods.

The Space Between Lightning
She's still small-but she's not soft. A reimagining of Fourth Wing with a heroine who's not just fragile and tiny-she's powerful, dangerous, and absolutely not afraid of dragons or heartbreak - currently trending in Liam Mairi. Expect slow-burn romance, deadly training, a messy love triangle, and a shadow boy who's very much not out of reach... yet. This is also partly my guilty pleasure. It won't follow every detail of the book, but will still follow the major plot points. - Apparently you all like dragons and slow burns 😊 #1 in dragon riders 🐉![A Fifth Daughter [Book 2: The Dragon Warrior]](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/44726514-256-k114657.jpg)

It's a fight to the death war; no surrendering and no prisoners. The flags of Legend and Lore have joined, the Demons are rallied, and Smoke is on a mission. Reports have arrived from all over Fantasy. Vampires are being defanged and Fairy Dust collect-ed. But there are no real leads. No definite answer as to who is killing these creatures and no one knows where all the stolen objects are being taken or what they are used for. Taking the well-known name of an assassin and thief; Sinder Zane, Smoke goes undercover to find out the truth behind all the bad stuff going on in the background of the real battle. What she finds, though, could change everything. When Cai is taken, Smoke will do anything and everything to get him back, even betray her own knowledge of what is right. She's not a leader. She's not a queen. She's just a girl wanting a normal life and everyone who underestimates that could find themselves at the sharp point of her sword. Starting in Fairy Tale, kidnapped to Graceland, Smoke travels to Urban, and then to the heart of Red Peak, where the story of Fantasy could very well end.

Erys: An Eragon Fanfiction - (Under Editing)
In the time Eragon has been absent from Alagaësia, the riders have fallen to vices. Few have been able to raise to fulfill the roles the riders had originally been given, and a dark sect-reminiscent of the Foresworn-has risen to power. The cities and villages under their control live in fear, and those not already sworn to them are too weak to fight. Erys is a young girl living a simple village life. When men attack the village, her father disguises her as a young boy and makes her swear never to reveal her identity. When the marauders discover her, they take her and the other women and children hostage. Erys struggles to survive. Hiding her identity is almost impossible, and once they get her to the slave market, she would be trapped forever, and her true identity discovered. She plans her escape every night but has no idea where to go or who to trust. Her only sure plan of action is to free her mother, who has disappeared along with the other women captured the night of the attack. But first she has to escape her captors. And they have a dark secret and an even darker motive. One that would surely wreak havoc if no one stops them. Disclaimer! I do own Alagäesia. The world and this particular concept of dragon riders belong to Christopher Paoplini. The original characters, however, as well as this plot, belong to me.Concluida

And the ancient Flamebearers have vanished into legend. Until now.

A Fifth Daughter [Book 1: The Dragon Rider]
A MODERN MEDIEVAL FANTASY #3 in Fantasy |Book 1 of the Fifth Daughter Trilogy| When darkness arises and the world of Fantasy is in danger of being destroyed, the Dragon Riders are the first to show up. Fire and fang, sword and shaft, meet the enemy head on and the wars don't end until the enemy is disbanded. It's not a pretty business, but it must be done to secure the lives of every creature within Fantasy. There are two Rider schools - over thousands of Riders and dragons - and Smoke Green is one of them, no matter how much she dislikes the idea and the heights. Her fate has been chosen, even if she doesn't want it. With a vacant father, a mother who has too many secrets, four older sisters, an older brother, and a three minute older, annoying twin brother, Smoke isn't expected to be much more than a hometown girl of Folklore; who will get a boring desk job and never leave home. But then the Sage of the Burrows proclaims her a Dragon Rider and a Fifth Daughter and Smoke's life changes stories - literally. Moving from Folklore to Legend, Smoke is taught that fears can be conquered and villains do have a hunger for power. She also learns she might just have the power this villain is after. She makes friends: Something she didn't know she could do, she finds her dragon: Someone she didn't know even existed, and she learns her past: Something she didn't know was so complicated. But when rebellions begin to break out across the globe; the world of Fantasy is once again put in danger and the Dragon Riders might not be able to save their home this time around. Especially, when the enemy is from one of their own royal families; once thought incinerated, and his accomplice might just be Smoke's long thought dead father. In this first book of the Fifth Daughter Trilogy, J.J. wants you to forget everything you think you know of mythology and open your mind to a new kind of fantasy.
