Daughter of the Dragon, Book One: Shadow of the Unmaker

All Rights Reserved ©

Summary

A blacksmith’s apprentice with no past, a young witch no one trusts, and a landlord’s restless daughter are drawn into a struggle against an ancient evil that seeks not to conquer the living, but to erase every memory, every name. --- The old stories say evil was defeated. The Pit was sealed. The world was saved. The end. But the old stories are no longer enough. When Valant, Meika, and Darya discover a broken stele buried beneath their village, they awaken powers none of them understand—and draw the attention of the Covenant, a secretive order willing to burn towns and break kingdoms to seize the girl they call the Daughter of the Dragon. But the Covenant is not the only danger moving through the world. Something older and more terrifying is stirring, feeding on the lost and the forgotten, devouring names and memories, and leaving only deathless shades behind. A blacksmith’s apprentice with no past. A witch’s daughter with a forbidden legacy. A restless landlord’s child who refuses the life chosen for her. Together, they must cross a land where buried history is rising, old lies are tearing everything apart, and the wrong choices can unmake them. If they fail, the world will not fall into darkness. It will be forgotten.

Author's notes: The revised edition

Daughter of the Dragon is FINALLY both getting a major overhaul AND getting finished.

WHY? And why NOW?

Good questions, dear reader!

I’ll try to explain.

The original draft sat idle, half-finished, for like a year and a half, and I couldn’t bring myself to write anymore.

Until I realized I was trying to tell a story I wasn’t really interested in.

So I decided to look at it one more time to figure out whether the story should be scrapped entirely or saved.

And it turns out: it CAN be saved - saved, and MORE.

With the revisions, it becomes the story I want to tell, featuring the characters I want to write about, set in a world I want to share with the reader.

And with that, the story went from being uninteresting to me (and then impossible to finish) to something I really want to tell.

Hope you like it!

Love,

Felix
