Experience New York Times bestselling author Richard A. Knaak's classic Dragonrealm series in this exciting omnibus--three unforgettable tales, plus an original bonus novella in print for the first time ever! SHADOW STEED Betrothed to the disfigured King Melicard of Talak, Princess Erini begins to fear her burgeoning magical powers. She soon discovers that an obsessive vendetta has led the king to cast a sinister spell that conjures the shadow creature Darkhorse . . . and worse, the mad sorcerer Shade. THE SHROUDED REALM Long before the Dragonrealm, a race of master wizards ruled Nimth with little regard for the laws of nature. Forced into desperate escape to a mysterious world, the Vraad soon discover their new home is unyielding. Only Dru Zeree, with the aid of the shadowy creature who will become Darkhorse, may be able to save them. CHILDREN OF THE DRAKE Bitterness between factions is tarnishing the Vraad's new home. As Lord Barakas attempts to rule all, the wizard Dru Zeree's daughter discovers their adopted world has another plan. Worse, her only hope is himself transforming into the enigma that will someday call itself Shade. SKINS Morgis, son of the Blue Dragon and comrade-in-arms to the legendary Gryphon, has lingered in the land of the Wolf Raiders to help fight the remnants of the dark empire. However, with the Aramites' fall from power, he is about to discover that other ancient, dread forces have risen again. No s'han trobat descripcions de biblioteca. |

Shadow Steed
This tale brings us to one of Shade’s end as we pay witness to the downfall and uncover who he truly is, or err was. Whether or not it is the final end is unknown. This is due to not having finished the series. It brings us the heart of adventure, impending battles, and of course love. Intertwined are deception, friendship, magic, and of course the beloved Darkhorse of the Void.
The Shrouded Realm
This tale whisks us back in time to the Vraad world of Nimth. Here we meet Dru Zeree, and the foundation for the story that follows. In this story, we get to throw ourselves into the chaos as the Vraad and the dragon race Tezrenee try to cross over to the Shrouded Realm, also known as Dragonrealm.
Children of the Drake
The Tezrenee clan is at it again. Lord Barakas cooks up his most devious plan yet 15 years after the final crossing of the Vraad people. He had a vision once of ruling all of Dragonrealm, and with Darkhorse’s return, he can finally see the fruitfulness of his people. Devising a plan, the elder kidnaps the daughter of Dru Zeree and Darkhorse, using them against one another to do his bidding…But much is a miss as sickness begins to claim the Tezrenee clan, one by one, they begin to twist into a new race.
Skins
This is a novella, and the final book included in this volume of Dragonrealm II. It introduces us to a new character, a blue drake, who is attempting to hunt the wolf raiders. He and his comrades embark on something else altogether, it is a terrifying and gruesome battle for both survival and wits. Who will win in the end, and will they do so with their skins still attached?
I loved each tale as it brings you closer and more intimate with Dragonrealm itself along with the characters that grace each page. The writing style is one I have come to love, and it should surprise no one that I am a huge fan of Richard Knaak. It is more than a story when he writes. Instead he makes you a bystander in the story, you feel as the characters feel.
I always say that this is epic fantasy at its best. I say the same for Dragonrealm II. You get tossed into the fray, and live out the story as the characters do. That is just beyond awesome.
