The first in a exciting series of books set in a world where Magic is scoffed at in some Kingdoms, but it is the driving force behind the power of the crown in another. In fact, the very choice of who wears the crown of Westfeld is made by the Magic of the land and the Dragon who is its personification.
The PG rating is because some young children may have problems although the books has no major issues but the relationships described are between adults not children. Read the description and some of what my fans have written about both books.
