Praise for Book Two, The Dragon Hunters: "Genesse stresses the
necessity of trust between races and cultures and the perils of
bias and dissention, and he keeps the plot moving quickly . . ."
-Publishers Weekly; "Paul Genesse is a talented writer with two
rare gifts: the ability to create wonderful worlds, and the skill
to share them with his readers. Through his deft handling of magic
and mythic creatures, Paul Genesse transports us into a realm of
wild imagining. Taut susptense and fantastic imagery make the The
Dragon Hunters a tale no fantasy fan will want to miss." -Michael
A. Stackpole, New York Times bestselling author of The Star Wars
novel I, Jedi; "With vivid world-building, Paul Genesse] sets his
characters on paths that wind and twist through the world as they
try to reach their almost impossible goal-the death of the Dragon
King. The characters are driven, each for their own reasons, united
by their desire for honor, and vengeance for their kin. In the
midst of a fantasy, Paul weaves in realistic themes of family and
honor, prejudice and hate, love and redemption." -Elizabeth
Vaughan, USA Today bestselling author of The Warlands trilogy
The Golden Cord: Book One of the Iron Dragon Series: Some bonds can
never be broken. A hunter must leave behind the woman he loves,
give up all hope of survival, as he is forced to guide his most
hated enemies on a suicidal journey to the lair of the dragon king.
"This is a story that's worth your time. It's almost like going
back to that first fantasy novel that totally captivated you and
you read it over and over again. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED." -Russell
Davis, author, editor, and President of the Science Fiction and
Fantasy Writers of America; "A good mix of action, angst, and
romance. The Golden Cord has fine action sequences, like many a
fantasy novel, but Paul Genesse takes the time to make the
protagonist and his companions much more than hack and slashers.
They have hopes, fears, doubts, secret motivations, and backstories
that give the action gravitas. Plenty of swordplay and slaying for
the action junkies, but also plenty of self-doubt and romance for
those looking for a deeper story." -Donald J. Bingle, author of
Forced Conversion; "Paul Genesse's tale is elegantly written and
filled with rich, believable heroes and villains. He transports you
to a vibrant fantasy world that feels so real and complex you won't
want to leave. It is irresistible." -Jean Rabe, author of the
Finest Trilogy from Tor Books; About the Book: Death comes from
above in the plateau world of Ae'leron, where griffins and dragons
prowl the sky. Those who escape becoming prey-or enslavement in the
Drobin Empire-hide in the secret villages. Surviving in the depths
of the Thornclaw Forest, the people of Cliffton live on the edge of
the Void-an abyss of clouds that surrounds the plateaus and blocks
the view in the Underworld. Guardians work tirelessly to protect
each village, and Drake, along with his pair of guard dogs, is
Cliffton's most dedicated and vigilant. When Drobin warriors appear
outside the gates, he is forced to confront his most hated enemies.
But the secretive Drobin hide the true nature of their journey and
why wyverns hunt them. Drake's world becomes a whirlwind of change
as he leaves his true love and guides the Drobin on a suicidal
journey to the lair of the Dragon King. He must do this, for if he
doesn't, war will consume the world and destroy everything he
loves.
