Roar of Dragons

"The blood and death never reach my nose. The decaying bodies never touch my sight. Their cries fall short of my ears. I'm thinking about how this war and the killing have become all that I am."

Gera D'Alikar is the last hope for many of those attacked by Emperor Abaddon and his armies. For others, he is a harbinger of death.

The Pure, the fanatics led by Gera's insane brother, Dax, continue waging war against everyone who has anything to do with magic-Emperor Abaddon, the dragons and their worshipers, but most especially Gera and the Draig D'Alikar warriors. Having already murdered Gera's infant son and a city filled with true believers, Dax drives his force south across his former homeland toward his brother.

For his part, Gera's concern with his duty to protect all the kingdoms is rivaled only by his desperation to find Gini and their unborn baby before Dax and The Pure. When he and his brother finally meet, the winner will be the only one standing who can defeat Emperor Abaddon.

Their fight and the emperor's armies continue to draw all the kingdoms' attention away from Abaddon as he proceeds towards his coronation ceremony where a sacrificial ritual will give him complete control of magic...and the world.

Meanwhile, the whispers grow louder in Gera's head, whispers telling him to gather the dragons together for battle, a meeting, a ROAR OF DRAGONS.

ROAR OF DRAGONS is the exciting eighth book in the A Tale of Bone and Steel epic fantasy series. If you like gritty battles, daring heroes, and potent magic in a grimdark package, then you will love Kirk Dougal's action-packed adventures.
