As a band of wizards battles evil, a hero rises among them in this fantasy adventure by the New York Times–bestselling author of Firedrake. Nathan Bedlam has managed to free most of the human mages from the Dragon Kings’ control, but the struggle against the drake lords has not gone well. With treachery at every turn, Nathan knows that the only hope the rebels have is to seize Penacles, the City of Knowledge. Yet, doing that will require forcing the Gryphon to realize the power within him, a power that may also prove to be the rebellion’s downfall . . . The Turning War is a three-volume saga answering many of the questions concerning the Dragonrealm and the Dragon Masters and how those events yet reverberate in the current timeline. Praise for the Legends of the Dragonrealm “Full of energy. . . . Great world building [and] memorable characters . . . It’s easy to see why Richard has enjoyed so much success!” —R. A. Salvatore, New York Times–bestselling author “Richard’s novels are well-written, adventure-filled, action-packed.” —Margaret Weis, New York Times–bestselling author “Endlessly inventive. Knaak’s ideas just keep on coming!” —Glen Cook, author of Chronicles of the Black Company
