The Return of the Dragons: Hidden Magic Volume I - Paperback

by Kenneth S. Kappelmann (Author)

The dragons were defeated two hundred years ago.

Troyf has lived in peace ever since. Until now.

When Prince Schram returns home from a journey with Kirven-his closest friend and a powerful canok mage-he finds his city changed beyond recognition. Goblins patrol the streets. Black canoks enforce their will. The royal castle is in ruins... and the king and queen have vanished without a trace.

As Schram fights to survive and escape, he's pulled into a widening conflict that reaches far beyond his kingdom. Something is stirring across Troyf: ancient magic, corrupted beasts, hidden enemies, and a threat that feels disturbingly familiar.

With a hardened warrior's instincts, a fierce young woman driven by vengeance, and allies from the forgotten races of the world, Schram is forced to confront a terrifying truth:

The Dragon Oppression may not be over.

It may only be beginning again.

The Return of the Dragons launches the Hidden Magic epic fantasy series-filled with ancient races, dangerous magic, goblin armies, and the slow unearthing of secrets powerful enough to reshape the world.
