Legacy of the Black Dragon

In Julie D’Arcy’s, Legend of the Black Dragon, Lady Meggahn’s life alters the night the Black Dragon returns to Tarlis.

Lady Meggahn is betrothed to a man she hates. Frantic to find a way out of the betrothal, she pursues the shadow of a Dragon into the hills. Instead of finding the fabled Black Dragon, she encounters Garrik le Fey. Thwarted, irritated, and perturbed she returns home.

Garrik le Fey spent eight centuries guarding Norokah. With his freedom, Norokah’s evil is unleashed on Tarlis again. Determined to defeat him and conclude the fight began almost a millennium ago, Garrik embarks on a quest for Arkgeld. Noticing flames below, he heads down the mountain and comes across Meggahn assisting the survivors of Norokah’s attack.

Julie D’Arcy lovingly and evocatively describes the pain and heartache that hiding secrets from loved ones does to a person. Garrik longs to share his soul with Meggahn, but fears her rejection and confusion if she learns the truth. Will he lose Meggahn or take a chance before it is too late?

Legend of the Black Dragon deftly and poignantly weaves romance, ardor, treachery, and anguish into a saga of soul mates separated by a painful secret. Meggahn refuses to forgive Garrik for his secrets. Will she forfeit love for bitterness or will she give Garrik a second chance? Julie D’Arcy captivated me from the first page. I hope that she does not wait to long before releasing another book in the Talisian Saga.
