Sixteen years ago, the strongest of the dragons who once flew free over
the kingdom of Auland escaped extinction the only way they knew how;
releasing their souls to reside in unaware humans. With a debilitating
sickness now spreading through their hosts, time is running out for them
once more. On the streets of the capital city, a gold smuggler named
Giselle struggles to survive with the help of the Voice inside her head.
Her world is turned upside down when she catches an opportunity to
travel to the mountains just as she has always dreamed, but there is a
price to pay which she cannot avoid. In the south, Corran is the
youngest son of the dragonslayer who led the battle all those years ago.
He clashes with his brothers daily in a battle to prove himself and when
he hears of dragon sympathisers in the area he is determined to turn it
to his advantage. But with the first footstep outside his home, he sets
his destiny to never return. Two souls can't live in one body forever.
The hibernation is over.
