Dragon Lord: Shattered Worlds: Book 2 - Paperback

As time grows short and the appointed date of the ritual approaches, Azriel must release the Dragon Elementals from their eon's long imprisonment otherwise the ritual to unite the worlds will fail. Meanwhile, his mother, Abelene, has been held captive by Rastaban and the Clave. To make matters worse, Azriel must face the Dark Dragon, Lord of Death before he can reach the fullness of his power. Azriel and his companions, Camille, Jasper, Albert, and a host of others known as the Order of the Ankh must prepare for a showdown with the Clave. In order to do so, Azriel must also solve the riddle of immortality by creating the Lapis Occultus, the substance of power. To complicate matters, Azriel and his friends are raising a baby dragon who insists that Azriel too is a dragon. But Azriel also learns a dark secret about Abelene's past that threatens to derail his rise to full empowerment. Help, however, is always there for the asking from unexpected sources and places. What Azriel thinks are enemies perhaps are not, and if used properly, could lead to ultimate victory.
