Quen Santu works for her father tanning hides, waiting for her tides to turn. Everyone she grew up with has already committed to a herdclan. But Quen was born cursed with a second, shadow soul. Sensing the oddity within, animals run from her—an untenable trait in a herding culture. On the cusp of her twentieth year, Quen is at risk of becoming pesha —no one.
Then, a dragon kills her father. The murder turns Quen’s life upside down and dashes her hope for an honorable life. As her anger grows, so does her untapped power. Fueled by a quest for vengeance, she joins a vigilante group of rogues hunting the beast. But her journey soon reveals a terrible truth: beyond the safety of her desert village, she has caught the attention of dangerous eyes. And now, she has become the hunted.
At the end of her journey, Quen’s fate will be sealed. Can Quen overcome her curse and unite her warring souls? Or will her shadow soul consume her—and everyone she loves?
The fate of her homeland—and all she loves—hangs in the balance.
“This dazzling fantasy series starter…seizes attention from the start, balancing bravura worldbuilding with compelling characters, urgent storytelling, and a welcome sense of clarity… The stakes are high, the prose crisp, and the adventure thrilling as Wright rewards and upends reader expectations, building to an epic ending that satisfies as it sets up for more adventure.”—Editor’s Pick, BookLife Reviews
“[ Season of the Dragon ] was engaging, beautiful, and vivid. The story was filled with magic, sorcery, dragons, and action. The [story is] about the unconditional love a father has for his daughter, regardless of what she is. It was refreshing to see how love gave her strength when she was weak… I recommend this book to lovers of mystery and magical books. Wholeheartedly, I anticipate the next book in the series.” —RAYMOND N., Online Bookclub
“[Wright’s] powers of description are first-class, and her worldbuilding impressive. She presents her world with great clarity… The scenes in Qülla are especially sumptuous and vivid, and it’s impossible to not believe in such a place: a fabulous work.” —DARIO CIRIELLO, Editor
“I thoroughly enjoyed the first of what I hope will be many books to follow. [Wright] has created a wonderful, fully developed world with the complexity of Tolkien. Full character development with language, destinations and entertaining relationships. I can’t wait for more!” —J. PEPPER, Advance Reader”
