Revisiting Dragons and Witches

I’d like to invite you into the magical, sometimes frightening beginnings of the realm of Ring-witches and dragons–the world of Nesht.

Meet Mayra, a powerful Ring-Witch who has been raised an adventurer as a reever, the king’s formidable enforcers. After many years, she finds herself seeking new adventures on her horizon. But for the present, she is second in command of an investigation into mysterious and deadly attacks on the kingdom. Where she runs into Wolfe, who is she soon learns, a Ring-Witch in hiding, and also an effective assassin. The dark and austere man wants to complete one last job before returning to his homeland. Their immediate attraction doesn’t startle them nearly as much as figuring out that both of them have been hearing and seeing things that should be the stuff of nightmares, yet couldn’t possibly be, not when there is evidence of their reality. When at last the two witches come face-to-face with the creator of those mysterious and frightening messages, their lives are set on a course that will alter the futures of every human upon their world.

Gaulte, a powerful, tragic black dragon, has been magically captured, along with all of the males of his Aerie, and used by evil humans to kill and ravage seemingly without cause. Other of their kind have taken all of the Aerie females and nestlings as hostage. He survives on dreams of revenge until he links minds with an astonishingly feisty creature–but how could this–dear gods, it is a female human! How can it–she possibly help? And yet, she does! She risks her own life to help him. It takes the magic of witches to free Gaulte and his kind. It will take the blood of the other humans to satisfy his revenge if the witches aren’t able to help him free his family.

As a reward for freeing the dragons, Gaulte begins teaching the witches the many ways that their kind and dragons belong together, how they can help each other. Even he doesn’t know that such proximity will alter the magic of dragons and witches alike and finally fulfill an ancient prophecy that tells how the mingling of their powers will create superior beings, enhanced, but not necessarily nobler. And only one dragon and one human have a will strong enough to ensure that doesn’t happen.

The adventures of Gaulte, Mayra, Wolfe, and the other witches and dragons start in “Dragon Rings” and end in “Dragon’s Revenge” (due out later this year).
