-"There's an entire world out there that we don't know about. Don't be fooled by history, Drake; no one really knows what happened to the magic, or the dragons."-
When Drake Darkhurst, the unwanted son of a merchant, is taken as an apprentice to a 'retired' dragon slayer, he thinks it a lucky escape from the cruelty of his father. But as his travels take him further form the life he's always known, he finds himself thrown into a world of secrecy, sorcery and struggle for power, a world who's existence may rest on his shoulders.
(second book - Rise of the Overlord - Rym)
(third book - Ruse of the Overlord - Saeph (yet to be published))
(NOT a Dragon Rider book (i.e. Drake isn't a Dragon Rider) but there are dragon riders in the series :3)
