The Dragon Society

It all began with Dragon Weather: a wave of incredible heat, oppressive humidity, dark angry clouds ... and dragons. Dragons with no remorse, no sympathy, and no use for humans. Dragons who destroyed an entire village and everyone in it. Everyone, that is, except the young boy Arlian.
Orphaned and alone, Arlian was captured by looters and sold as a mining slave. Seven years later he escaped, fueled by years of hatred for the dragons, bandits, and slavers who took away his youth - and a personal vow to exact retribution from all those who have wronged him, including the powerful Lord Enziet. Arlian's entire life has one purpose, and one purpose only: to mete out justice. And in the climactic battle of Dragon Weather Lord Enziet fell to this justice.
In The Dragon Society Arlian returns to Manfort, the city that is home to the Dragon Society, whose sworn purpose is to stand against the dragon menace, and whose foremost member had been Lord Enziet. Arlian must immediately deal with the consequences of Enziet's death. But what he finds is shocking, for the doomed Enziet believed that Arlian might well be the best hope humanity will ever have for defeating the dragons ... permanently.
