Dragon Mage: A YA Dragon Fantasy Adventure With A Reluctant Hero Who Must Rise To Save His Fractured Kingdom (The First Dragon Rider Book 3)

<b> To unite a fractured kingdom, a reluctant hero must rise. </b><br /><br />Neill has been charged with the impossible task of bringing the Middle Kingdom together to fight the burgeoning threat posed by the rogue sorcerer Ansall and his dragon Zaxx. Neill longs for his old life as a mere foot soldier for his father responsible only for his family’s wellbeing, and is unsure about whether he is fit to lead an army. Neill’s contemplative nature forces him to consider every aspect of the problems he faces, but often makes it difficult for him to take action—and failure to act could mean the deaths of many.<br /><br />Now, echoing Char and their dragon Paxala, his duty beckons him to lead the Dragon<br />Riders—and take his rightful place as king—but with doubt and new enemies creeping in, his resolve will be tested. When the mysterious Dark Prince arrives with an offer, Neill will have to make a decision that could change the course of history. As Ansall grows in strength by harnessing black magic, Neill must choose between his own desires and the welfare of the entire kingdom. Can he rise to the challenge before it’s too late?
