Foundation of Courage (Shadow of the Dragons Book 1)
A dark ritual heralds the dragons’ return. The world trembles.
To save his dying mother, a young man named Euddan enters a cursed forest where monsters of darkness prowl. Alone in the shadowy woods, he finds a mysterious creature made of light. She may be his salvation…and the only way to save his mother.
A young woman and childhood friend of Euddan suffers the cruel abuse by her father, a dark wizard feared by all. When her father conducts a dark ritual with her as a sacrifice, Euddan can no longer stomach it. He must brave terrible magic to save the girl he loves and disrupt the plans of a deadly cabal decades in the making.
His actions will anger almighty wizards dedicated to returning dreaded dragons to his world.
Can these two young heroes survive the deadly shadow of the dragons looming over them?
