Taziem is a magnificent dragon: sexy, powerful, intelligent. Like other dragons, she hoards diamonds, but unlike other dragons, she covets knowledge as well. So when the local villagers offer her one of their younglings as a sacrifice, she decides to take it home with her and study it so she might learn all there is to know about humans. If the youngling satisfies her curiosity, sheâll set it free eventually. If it disappoints, sheâll feed it to her soon-to-be-born dragonets.
As it so happens, the youngling is fearless, clever, and dragon-smart. She quickly exceeds Taziemâs wildest expectations and winds up bonding with the newborns. Lathwi, The Soft One, they call her, and accept her as a tanglemate. As they live and grow and play together, Lathwi forgets that she was ever human. After a time though, Taqziem must banish Lathwi from her territory for her own safety.
Forced into the human world again, Lathwi begins a journey of re-discovery, stumbling onto a plot to revive dragonkindâs ancient nemesis. She withstands sorcerous attacks and an onslaught of demons, but without her motherâs help, she knows she cannot defeat the evil that threatens to consume the world.
The question is, can she return to Taziemâs mountain in time to prevent an apocalypse?
