Publisher's Synopsis
All Cora wanted was fame. All Cuauhtérroc wanted was revenge. What they got was each other and a motley assortment of hard-scrabble freeblades. And a jail sentence...turns out you can't just burn down a national monument...
Book One of a deeply layered eight-part series, In the Company of Dragonslayers chronicles the mis-adventures of ordinary people who must do extraordinary things. It will appeal to lovers of Robert Jordan's Wheel of Time series, Brandon Sanderson's Mistborn trilogy, and J.R.R. Tolkien's Lord of the Rings trilogy. After lying to her parents and pursuing a forbidden artifact, Cora O'Banion may never be able to return home. After watching his war-torn jungle home burn, Cuauhtérroc vows to return with vengeance and an army. While nothing alike, the pampered socialite and the wild savage embark together on distinct journeys of self-fulfillment, drawing from each other what they lack in themselves. Among the metaphorical (and literal) debris of their folly, Cora discovers a plot to overthrow the nation of Alikon. Personal goals (and loves) must be cast aside to ensure a nation is saved from the encroachments of ancient evil. Don't miss the exciting sequel, Scarlet Trails, planned to release in time for Christmas 2022!
