Wyvern (Dark Lair Trilogy #1)

A mother flees through snow-covered mountains while her lover dies buying her the time to escape.
A child is born into a war that has already begun.

Three thousand years ago, a great evil was defeated.
Three crystals sealed its prison.
Three races stood united against the coming darkness.

But the world has forgotten.

Now the crystals have been found again.

In the shadows, the Prince of Shade stirs. Kingdoms fall into war. Ancient enemies awaken. And in the dark places of the world, something far older prepares to rise.

Brinn Thronso never sought greatness. Raised far from the courts of kings and the schemes of warlords, he is unprepared for the destiny closing around him. But as the old powers gather and the world edges towards ruin, Brinn and a small band of unlikely companions may be the last hope against what is coming.

Megan, a princess trapped between duty and war, may hold the power to unite a shattered world… or watch it burn.

If the Key is found, the prison will open.

And this time, there may be no one left to stand against the darkness.
