Dragon Bones

Dragon Bones Cover

Staff Pick

Ward of Hurog (heir apparent of Hurog's ruling family) has played the idiot for so long, in order to protect himself from his abusive father, that even after the old tyrant dies, he's still afraid to reveal his true self. Ward's father reaches from the grave one last time to hurt Ward with a writ, created before his death, declaring his son unfit to rule. Ward is devastated with grief over the loss of Hurog. With the help of legendary Hurog ghost Oreg, his father's manservant Axiel, Hurog's stable master Penrod, his father's warhorse, which has been renamed Pansy (because who could be afraid of a Pansy?), and a few others loyal family and friends, they escape before Ward is taken to the asylum and start the arduous process of reclaiming what was lost...
