Here is the synopsis for a book I published in 2007....I have part of the second in the series finished..Dragons Lineage:)
Dragons Legacy begins with a journalist, Serena, who is looking for the truth about dragons. She finds an ancient woman, Betra, who relates to her dragon stories passed down in her family. Betra explains that dragons are healers and can appear as humans if they wish.
The story is told of a lonely dragon/girl, Mary, who finds a human friend who is like a brother to her, Charlie, while escaping from prejudiced villagers. Mary rescues baby Quinton, the future heir, and raises him with the help of Charlie, the elves and fairies, after his parents are killed.
Evil dragons are explained as those that let their ego spin out of control in the story of Maalock, the powerful Dragon of War, whom protects humans in spite of persecution against dragon kind. Quinton with help from Mary, the dragon, fights to regain control of his kingdom.
Serena leaves Betra’s home with the charge to write what she has been told and return in a month’s time for more stories and answers about dragons.
ANCIENT DRAGON PROPHESY
“Blood of the dragons flows in him strong,
Knowing to Creator, he always belongs,
Son of the King rescued from the tower,
Seventh generation will come into power,
He will bring to our land justice and peace,
Then all wars and turmoil at last will cease.”
Excerpt from Dragons Legacy: Book One of the Path of the Dragons Series by Morgana Starr published in 2007
Mary lifted her hands to the sky. Immediately the wind started blowing, as she murmured softly in an ancient language. The air around her shimmered and a misty haze lifted from the ground, as her hair streamed out behind her in the wind.
Straining his eyes, Charlie struggled to make out Mary’s form. He saw her shape grow and expand until his sight was filled with a dragon more beautiful than he could have imagined even in his wildest dreams. Her multicolored scales glinted in the sun, scattering rainbows all around.
She turned her glittering head and in a deep voice that seemed to come from the very core of the earth, rumbled, “Now is the time. Get on my back little one; we must leave this place.”
With one talon, she retrieved the cape that she had worn. It was her only piece of clothing that had not been shredded as her body grew to become a dragon. Holding the cape firmly in a talon, she politely offered a knee to assist Charlie’s assent.
Her voice jolted Charlie out of his fascination. From a distance he heard the men from the village as they came out of the woods into the clearing.
“There they are! She has already become a demon beast! After her! Kill, Kill!” they bellowed in crazed voices.
With the shouts of the crowd driving him to action, Charlie shook himself from his reverie and quickly scrambled astride his new dragon friend.
“Hold tightly, my little one,” Mary the dragon commanded.
Charlie threw his arms around the dragon’s neck and squeezed for all he was worth. Mary did not have time to lift off properly with the threat of the men so close; she simply stepped off the cliff into thin air.
