From legendary author Raymond E. Feist, the first installment in an epic new series that will join his acclaimed Firemane Saga with his signature Riftwar Cycle in a riveting, conclusive adventure.
As worlds collide . . .
Hatushaly, last scion of the Firemane dynasty; his beloved Hava, and their dubious friend Donte have been transported across space and time from their war-torn world of Garn to the relative peace of Midkemia.
There, on Sorcerer’s Isle, under the guidance of the great magician Magnus and his reincarnated father Pug, Hatu will explore and expand his unique magical abilities: for if Garn is to be saved, they will be needed.
With the evil Pride Lords defeated, the Church of the One has risen to bring death and destruction to Hatu’s home world. The kingdom of Ilcomen has fallen, and now the Church is sending forces to Marquensas, where Daylon Dumarch has declared himself king, and master swordsmith Declan Smith finds himself suddenly raised to the status of prince and war commander.
But there are even greater menaces than the Church of the One waiting in the wings, beings from the Void, creatures born of Darkness. . .
The series
In a world already stretched thin by rifts between realms, the balance never holds for long. The Dragonwar Saga carves out its place in epic fantasy not with spectacle alone, but through its careful layering of history, myth, and human consequence. Set in the rich tapestry of Midkemia and Kelewan, this arc dives into the aftermath of long-standing conflict, where dragons are more than creatures of legend and war is never just about weapons or warriors.
Read full series description
This story unfolds in the quiet dread before battle, in the shifting loyalties of war-torn courts, and in the cracks between worlds that refuse to stay sealed. What sets this series apart is how it resists easy resolution. Power comes with cost, peace demands sacrifice, and the true threat often moves in silence, hidden behind masks of diplomacy and memory.
Rather than clinging to high fantasy tropes, this saga leans into moral ambiguity and the long shadows cast by past choices. Its characters are worn but not broken, shaped by grief, duty, and the pressure of living up to old legends. The sense of place is immersive, drawing readers through crumbling cities, ancient strongholds, and the quiet spaces between moments of violence, where fate quietly sharpens its edge.
For readers who are drawn to fantasy that lingers in the gray spaces between heroism and ruin, this tale offers something deeper. It doesn't just tell a story, it unfolds a legacy, piece by piece, through tension, lore, and a steady buildup that rewards patience with impact. There's a war coming, but it's not just between dragons and men—it’s a reckoning across generations.
