When Aralaiah, along with Red Queen and Bronze Queen, attacked the Demorsans and prevented the invasion of Dracos, she thought that Red Queen had offered to carry her just that one time. But then, Ullra Mobit turns up demanding to know what Aralaiah means to do, and she discovers that Red Queen has chosen her to be her rider.
She is now First Rider of Dracos, and not only did Red Queen not bother to tell Aralaiah this, she has also been making other demands on her behalf – demands that Aralaiah knows nothing about and strongly disagrees with. When she taxes Red Queen with these omissions and refuses to be treated like a possession, Red Queen almost kills her in a fit of temper. Blue-green Queen heals the damage, and Aralaiah finally comes to an agreement with Red Queen. At least that crisis is over.
There’s no rest to be had, though. Heroine of Dracos or not, there’s teaching to be done. The people of Dracos need what Aralaiah can teach them now more than ever, but winter is closing in, and so are the Demorsans. There is no time for her to rest on her laurels, or even to recover from her latest adventure. The very day after the battle against the Sorcerers’ men, she and the team are off on another teaching trip.
Security is even tighter this time around. The intelligence people have discovered that the Sorcerers’ aims in respect to Aralaiah have changed. They no longer want to kill her. Now, they want to capture her alive. When an attack on the road almost kills one of Aralaiah’s friends, she knows things are getting serious.
But she has no idea how serious until a few days later when a dragon arrives with an urgent message. Having failed to capture Aralaiah, the Demorsans have now changed their tactics. They’ve kidnapped Pryn and Draken and they’re threatening to kill them unless Aralaiah gives herself up to them.
But the government of Dracos isn’t about to allow that. Aralaiah and Beda are virtual prisoners in their home. And meantime, Draken and Pryn are out there somewhere, in mortal danger. Life just gets more and more complicated.
Rainbow Mage, Heir of Ghlent, Heroine of Dracos, even First Rider, none if it means much when two of Aralaiah’s best friends are in danger and she can’t do anything to help them. Every human agency and every dragon in Dracos is trying to find them, but until (and unless) they do, Draken and Pryn are on their own.
Join Aralaiah and Beda, Draken and Pryn on what may be their most nerve-racking adventure yet.
