The Legend of Oescienne: The Beginning

by Jenna Elizabeth Johnson

Overview

A young heroine in training, eager to prove her worth. A domineering dragon, determined to test her fortitude. And an ancient curse threatening the very existence of their world . . . An epic, middle grade fantasy adventure series for the entire family!

In the twelve years since coming to live in Oescienne, Jahrra has grown and learned about the magical world around her, facing personal dangers, challenges, and enemies of her own, despite having a dragon to watch over her.

Yet, as the months pass, her dragon guardians begin to grow anxious. There is evidence of an unknown evil in their midst - a threat they cannot see or hear, but one they can sense like a bad omen.

And it's only a matter of time before Jahrra becomes aware of the prophecy she is meant to fulfill, and what she must sacrifice in order to survive what lies ahead. Only one question remains: will she be ready to face the Crimson King when the time comes, or will the fate of Ethöes be forever sealed in darkness?

Imagine a world as rich as Tolkien's Middle-earth, a plot as multifaceted as Harry Potter, an adventure that rivals Eragon, and characters as memorable and endearing as the Wings of Fire dragons. The Legend of Oescienne is an epic fantasy dragon adventure series beloved by readers of all ages!
