Dragon's Fury (#1)

Kora grew up in a small village and seemed destined for a quiet, measured life. But when shamans, dark servants of the empire, invade her land, no one suspects what they want and what goals they pursue. One day, Kora... becomes an unwitting witness to their attack and magic that can extract souls. The girl pierces a shaman with a blade, thereby signing her own death sentence. In search of salvation in the wild lands, Kora meets a fire-red dragon. All dragons were once enslaved by the king and forced to merge with humans. Flair, the last dragon in Anastasilia, is forced to hide. Now he must act together with Kora to overthrow the empire… or a torturous death awaits each of them, as the hunt for their heads has already begun.
