I live in Tynan, the fourth dynasty, where the dragons do provide much protection, and there is much need of it. Our dynasty is set high in the northern mountains where wild animals and avalanches are ever constant. But the tribute they require in return is so horrible, no one speaks of it. I cannot even utter it here, now, on paper. In fact, I will soon have to lay down my pen because my fingers tremble, scrawling nervous, illegible scribbles across the pages signifying the last days of my life. The unspoken truth grows all the more real, close, and unbearably frightening.
For, you see, I am the new Quelda of Tynan...
Zale. Gauthier. Varden. These three dynasties…They all sound like something out of an ancient, oriental myth or fairy tale. The concept of humans and dragons helping and living in harmony with one another, without fear. To me, that’s exactly what they are. A distant dream only read of, whispered secretly, quietly yearned for. For, you see, I am the new Quelda of Tynan.br />

A brilliantly crafted story, combining serious coming-of-age elements with a unique, fantastical world. Part of Schulze's series, The Gailean Quartet.
"The Elantra, the queen of our people, dwells high in the clouds alongside the Moragon, her king and husband. Daily the laughter of the Elantra fills the sky, causing a magical rain to drizzle down, its spell providing Adelar with all it needs for its success, its happiness, and its prosperity."
Lies. Children's fairy tales.
And as Crispin Rachendorf learned at his coming-of-age ceremony, the truth is more horrible than he could've ever imagined. Crispin alone can travel into the future to find the one who created the Elantra's imprisonment, Gail Fleming | |  | | Golden Healer, Dark Enchantress
She alone could save the Stregoni Benefici from the Dark Enchantress. But can Chrystine figure out the Dark Enchantress' secret and defeat the evil vampires without destroying the good ones as well, without destroying Aaryn?
He leaned his head close to my ear and whispered, "Are you afraid?"
Chrystine had had more reason than any other time of her life, even when facing one of the rampages of her drunken father. But she wasn't afraid. And that was odd, because although Aaryn, the person asking her that question, was her best friend, he was also a vampire. In fact, she was surrounded by hundreds of vampires.
But they weren't your typical vampires. They were Stregoni Benefici, the good kind. Nor was Chrystine your typical fairy. She was the Golden Healer, and she alone could save t |
