Shalima, "Daughter of the Light", was born under special circumstances. She was raised by her aunts instead of her mother because she needed to be prepared to fulfill the prophecies of the Old Scriptures, which told that she was the only Magician on Earth. Her aunts carefully prepared her for her obligations and her sacred duty. She will have to get married to the Holy Golden Dragon, the King of the Dragons, a huge Earth Dragon with magical talents. She cannot believe that she is the "Chosen One", who has to protect the Dragon Species, all of Nature and finally the Earth. But when she turned into a teenager it seemed that the Old Scriptures were right. Not only does she have to fulfill her duty by getting married to the Dragon - she will also have to go on a deadly mission to save the world from an unspeakable evil. A mission there is very little hope her party will ever return from. Não foram encontradas descrições de bibliotecas. |

There's a lot more to the book than the title "Dragonbride." Naturally, as you might have surmised the book is about a young maiden who has to marry a dragon.
Irma, a beautiful woman who happens to be a witch, gives birth to a child. So what, you might say. However, the child she gave birth to happens to be a girl, who, according to a very ancient prophecy, must be given up and properly trained to fulfil it.
Trained by her aunts, Shalima, the zealous student of the occult, becomes more powerful than anyone could have imagined. When she reaches the age of maturity the required three tests she needs to pass in front of a tribunal comes as no match for this young witch.
Unlike most arranged marriages, her love for Dragan, her shape-shifting husband seems to be never-ending and not a single thing could ever bring it asunder regardless of the form he's in at any given moment. Yet, despite this, an ominous dark cloud casts a shadow on their relationship; the shadow is the same prophecy which had brought them together which must be allowed to continue to its ultimate conclusion unless faith steps in and allows them to prevent it.
If you ever wanted a story full of romance, adventure, trust and the magic of fantasy then this book would be wonderful for its intended YA audience, or any reader who's interested in rekindling their imagination; as it has for me and why I'm giving this book 5 STARS.
