Description

The Oathbreaker's Legacy (The Dragonknight Trilogy, Book 2)

Jenna has learned so much in the last few months. After being discovered as a woman at the Trials to replace Sir Garond, she was forced to join the Protectresses of the South under Lady Ayn. She had to endure so many tests and chores, so much hazing, but she finally made it through. She went on her first mission, to the city of Portton, and fought pirates! She helped liberate the city, and actually killed their leader herself!

Even though that brought acceptance from the other Protectresses, it didn't assuage the feeling in her gut that she was meant to be a Dragonknight. And then it happened - the mock duel between Sir Conor and Ser Gogol of Vulgesch, leading to the latter's death in a terrible accident. Without thinking (as usual for Jenna), she rushed out onto the plain to meet the dragon. Upon touching it, she learned her name - Drakkbjorge - and saw much of her life. She climbed atop the great beast and flew away despite the protestations of Sir Conor.

Now, everything has changed. By becoming the first woman Dragonknight of Abrea, Jenna has upset the world! No one trusts that she can control the dragon, and even her own Dragonknights don't want to accept her. Vulgesch is angry at the theft of their dragon, and the other nations are at least uncomfortable with the shift in power.

Jenna must learn what it means to be a Dragonknight of Abrea, to obey the commands of her Lord of the South, Sir Conor, and King Rendor. But some things confuse her at every turn. Why does she know more about these wonderful creatures than men who've been Dragonknights for years? Why is her very existence so terrifying to so many and so wonderful to others? What will become of her, Drakkbjorge, and Abrea?
