Two masters of epic fantasy come together in this thrilling collaboration to deliver a tale that has become a fan favorite. At its heart is Shana, born of a forbidden union between an Elvenlord father and a human mother. Orphaned and exiled, she is raised in secret by dragons—an ancient, noble race hidden from both elves and men. From the moment of her birth, Shana embodies a long-feared Prophecy, and her journey unfolds into a sweeping adventure that launched a beloved series and garnered a dedicated following among fantasy readers.
