When EVIL rises, GOOD needs a hero.

A thousand years ago, on the world of Claire-Agon, a war raged between men and dragons, destroying the creatures and the land's many civilizations.

When his family is enslaved, Targon Terrel must battle the sinister Kesh wizards to save them, but a desperate group of refugees from his home country of Ulatha needs his help, too.

With the unexpected aid of a Druid of the Arnen, Targon discovers his destiny as a Ranger, but far from solving his problems, this discovery will soon reveal a personal betrayal. Targon's fate brings him closer to long-buried truths about the ancient war between wizards and dragons -- truths that could plunge his world into darkness forever.

Product description

About the Author

Salvador Mercer loves Epic Fantasy. Having read all of Tolkien's works, and enjoying the many wonderful stories and tales by many other countless authors, he hopes to share the same delightful experience with those who also enjoy reading in the Fantasy genre. Thus the world of Claire-Agon was created, though imagined would be just as an appropriate word to describe this Fantasy setting. Basing the world's evolution, magic, and history on a scientific foundation, the Claire-Agon books come alive to relate tales and stories from our not too distant neighbors orbiting Tau Ceti not twelve light years distant. The stories are inspired by past author greats, but written and moved forward by Mercer where he sincerely hopes that the stories delight and entertain the reader. He invites you to enter the world of Claire-Agon, and hopes you share with him your experience there. Salvador Mercer is fluent in English, Russian and Spanish, loves languages, history, reading and science. He lives with his three boys, a baby (elf), toddler (hobbit), teenager (orc), and wife Masha.

5.0 out of 5 stars Finally found a GREAT new author and amazing story!

Waited a long time for a new author to capture my interest and provide the this type of fantasy saga! I read and re-read both Terry Brooks and David Eddings series because the writing pulled you inside the story itself. Written to allow you to know the characters and settings the way you would get to know them in real life. You become a part of it all. Most authors try to tell you facts and spend too much time away from the story trying to force feed their mind's eye view of it all.
Very well written and fresh tale with characters who have been well developed. Amazingly, I noted no editing errors! If you are looking for the diamond in the pile of coal ,this is it. I bought book two and was not disappointed there either..
Thank you Salazar you scored a huge victory with this book, and no doubt entire series.

I choose this rating because even though it has a good storyline, I have the feeling that it will be a long drawn out experience which will then end with a cliff hanger, I do not know if it will be worth the long read as this book has not held me riveted to the storyline, however it has much promise.

The characters are outstanding and this writer really knows how to make them interesting. So many writers miss the mark but these characters make you cheer for them and and keep you on the edge of your seat rooting for them to win! Can't wait to start the next book!
