~Includes the first three full-length books of Dragons Rising, an epic fantasy series~
The world will drown beneath the waves…only the last mage can stop it.
Vahly, the last mage, is the world’s biggest disappointment. Raised by the dragons, she was born to become the magical Earth Queen, the only one who can stop the Sea Queen’s mad plan to drown everything in existence. But there’s one … everything in existence. But there’s one problem: Vahly possesses no magic whatsoever.
The oceans begin to rise, limiting the dragons’ hunting grounds and fouling their water supply, endangering their very home. Vahly can’t let the dragons she calls family die under the Sea Queen’s magic, so as a last hope, she journeys to a legendary arcane library in search of answers. When she finds an ancient scroll about a ritual conducted deep in the homeland of the elves, she gathers her dragon allies to find the king of that great, forest-dwelling race.
Who she finds is a handsome royal cloaked in dark magic, twisted and powerful. Arcturus. His memory has holes he can’t explain, and when they learn his king is in league with the Sea Queen, Vahly and Arcturus must band together to defeat the elven king and to gain access to the secrets of Vahly’s unique magic before the ocean swallows the dragons’ homeland.
Discover the wonder in a world of dragons, elves, and mages in this epic fantasy perfect for fans of Anne McCaffrey’s Pern series, and Elise Kova’s Air Awakens, filled with adventure, magic, and a slow-burn romance.

Vahly, the last human, was born with a sigil birthmark as the next Earth Queen. Her mother handed her off to the dragon queen just before dying at the hands of the flooding, conquering sea folk. She was fully integrated into the Lapis clan of dragons and she has become the Earth Queen, slowly gaining her powers while being stalked by the Sea Queen’s general for assassination. A few painful battles have taught her much about fighting the Sea Queen, but she is not fully vested in power. A pull of strong magic lures her to a nearly impossible find, and it could be the key to winning—if only it could hatch!
She still has to gather her powers in the traditional ways; she cannot do that without loyal friends and supporters—and the respect of key enemies. As many of her allies are destroyed by her arch enemy, she pulls closer the remainder in her certainty that they must strive for balance—equality and mutual support. She is human, having gained power to shift into dragon form, and she truly understands the differences among the races complement each other. She relies on that to reach for the final goal of reaching her full powers. That’s in the next book…
I have reviewed the three books independently for those who want more in depth reviews regarding this trilogy! So the human race have all been wiped out from the island of Sugarrabota by the sea folk, except for one little girl who was saved by Amona, the dragon matriarch herself and brought up by the Lapis dragon clan. Turned out that this girl, Valhi, was Blackwater marked, which meant that she was to become an Earth Queen, however she grew into a young woman but never came into her powers and the clock was ticking for the dragons and elves who were still battling the sea folk. Astraea the sea folk queen was ruthless and wanted to wipe all land life from the earth and fill it up with sea water for the sea folks use and because different dragon clans fought amongst themselves and both clans hated the elves the sea queen seemed to be all powerful. However, Vahli decided it was high time she sought out how to gain her powers and do her job to save those who had looked after her throughout her life, the only family she ever knew, her dragons whose fate was now in her hands!! A tale full of suspense and a fight of good against evil and the courage of a young woman and her team of friends namely Arc and Nix, an elf and a dragon respectively, who are to join her on her quest to come into her powers no matter what! Brilliant from start to finish, and I really did not want the trilogy to end at all.
This series was about the last human on a world where 2 dragon tribes and the Sea Queen’s warriors battle for the world.
Book 1 spent the first part of the story setting up the world and its main characters and how everyone hates everyone that is not like their people. It bounces between the main characters as the story unfolds as it builds up the the ending. Secrets are revealed in one group that the other group really needs to know and made me laugh and groan in a few spots. It was fun watching Vahly come into her own as she tries to save the world and all her dragon friends. Just a great story that I found fun to read. Loved Vahly’s character too as she was not the typical hero.
Book 2 Vahly is back again and trying to learn all she can to become the last Earth Queen and save everyone from the evil Sea Queen. Like the first book it was fun and full of action and adventure. Loved the good and bad guys as their characters really felt real. Loved seeing everyone again and seeing how they changed from the beginning of book 1 to now. Just loved reading the book.
Book 3 Vahly is back and fighting for her life and everyone she knows again. I loved the action, suspense, and uncertainty of this series and this book especially. I love all the characters both good and bad as they are so compelling and fun. The story line was amazing as usual and kept me reading to the end just to see how evil the Queen would be and what Vahly will have to overcome.
