About this ebook

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 denizens of Narnia. The Legend of Oescienne is an epic fantasy series beloved by children and adults alike!

A human girl, the only one of her kind, a mighty dragon, sworn to keep her safe, and a destiny that will make them both the greatest legends of their time . . .

When the dragon Jaax receives word that a human child has been found in the province of Oescienne, he doesn't dare believe it. Humans have been absent from the world of Ethöes for centuries, cursed by an evil tyrant to live out the remainder of their lives in dragon form. Despite his doubts, Jaax wonders if this girl could be the long-awaited answer to an ancient prophecy, one that promises to put an end to the reign of the dreaded Crimson King once and for all.

Hidden away in the province of Oescienne, Jahrra grows up blissfully unaware of who - or what - she is. She's much too busy getting into mischief with her friends, or outsmarting her vile classmates, to worry about faraway tyrants or unanswered prophecies. Yet, the threat to her world isn't as distant as she'd like to think, and her destiny may come calling long before she's ready, a destiny that she alone was born to fulfill.

Story is building slowly but also becoming more interesting. A bit shakey to think the great dragons would/could walk for hours. Especially the younger more intense one. Seems to have a bit of light heartedness in the background. Worth reading the next book.

I am a die hard Potterhead. I have been trying to find a new series for years. Couldnt find any that kept my interest. I met the author at Phoenix Fan Fusion this year and she introduced me to this series. It took me awhile to get to read it. But once I started I couldn't stop. Please download and get hooked.

About the author

Fantasy Author. Swordswoman. Chicken Mama. These are just a few of the titles Jenna Elizabeth Johnson proudly goes by. She is the author of over a dozen novels, novellas, and short stories, including the award-winning Legend of Oescienne series, the Otherworld series, and the Draghans of Firiehn novella series.

Besides writing fantasy adventures featuring domineering dragons, headstrong heroines, brooding Celtic warriors, and all the magical creatures in between, she is a competitive HEMA (Historical European Martial Arts) practitioner, participating in longsword tournaments whenever she gets the chance.

During her down time, Jenna can be found exploring the open spaces of California’s Central Coast, camping in Yosemite National Park, reading books and webcomics, or hanging out with her flock of overly-affectionate lap chickens.
