He will need exceptional character to control his unique gifts without succumbing to them. This epic provides fantasy entertainment atop undercurrents of political and psychological depth.




A Word from the Author

Author C Craig Coleman PictureThis coming of age first book opens with twelve year old Saxthor’s uncomplicated life as the spare heir shattered by the discovery of a power he knows nothing about. It follows the demolition of his confidence as he and his cohorts overcome challenges that would destroy him. Wizards, witches, elves, dwarves, dragons and shape-shifters intertwine on his flight into exile. This book lets the reader ‘grow up’ with Saxthor experiencing his hurdles that develop his character and sense of dynastic responsibility. His best friend, Bodrin, exemplifies the contrasting lighter side of life. Having read this book, the reader will be with Saxthor through his life journey, seeing not only what he does, but knowing in his head why why and how he sees life’s challenges. Dragons are the personification of ultimate power. They exemplify the insurmountable fear we all face growing up. The Dragon Ring looks at the question, are we strong enough to meet family, friends and society’s expectations, the dragon of our youth.
