Official blurb below!
***
In 1931, a golden-haired man in
fine clothes appeared to a Siberian boy. An apparition in the snow.
In 2018, he guided a pack of
misfits to his prison. A man made of sharp smiles, and smoke, who they can
hear, but can never touch. He calls himself a prince, but how much does anyone
really know about Prince Valerian of Wallachia? Is he friend, or foe? Is he
real at all?
Val has spent the past 550 years
as a prisoner, venturing where and when he can, dream-walking, using his powers
of astral projection to escape the confines of his cell. His jailers call him “brother-killer,”
and “traitor” – old rumors of the immortal realm carried forth by the sinister
Ingraham Institute, a secret place hidden deep in the forest, bent on using the
blood and powers of immortals to fight a gathering threat too terrible to
reveal to the mortal world at large.
Now, Val’s brother, the infamous
Vlad Dracula, is awake, hellbent on stopping the boys’ wicked uncle, Romulus,
once and for all. But first, the boys will have to come to terms with one
another – and perhaps finally come to understand the tragedies that played out almost
six centuries ago.
In Book Three of the Sons of
Rome Series, dream-walk to 15th century Romania, to a Wallachia
besieged by the Ottoman Empire, and two immortal brothers fighting for their
lives. Inspired by the true story of Vlad Dracula, and his family, Dragon
Slayer travels from the palace at Tîrgovişte, to the Ottoman court, to the
siege of Byzantium. A tale of brothers, and betrayal; of captivity, and
revenge.
The immortals of the world are
gathering, and Vlad and Val, the original sons of Rome, stand poised to lead
the charge against a timeless evil. If only they can keep from killing one
another…
**This story is not a
standalone, and should be read after books one and two, White Wolf, and Red
Rooster. Book four, Golden Eagle, expected fall of 2019.**
