DragonCrown War Cycle Books in Order

Tarrant Hawkins and his friends begin their coming-of-age rituals only to encounter an invasion threatening Oriosa. A legendary sword promises invincibility, but its power draws them toward an ancient conflict where survival demands more than youthful courage.

Young thief Will steals an artifact that entangles him in a prophecy about defeating the tyrant Chytrine. Warriors and rulers see different uses for him, while Chytrine sends corrupted heroes to destroy the boy who might challenge her.

Chytrine's armies advance while her agents seek fragments of the DragonCrown, an artifact that could secure her rule. Princess Alexia gathers unlikely allies to resist her, facing accusations of treachery and competing loyalties within the threatened world.

Reports of Will Norrington's death threaten the alliance formed to oppose Chytrine. His companions continue the struggle despite uncertainty about the prophecy, while the tyrant exploits division and pursues the DragonCrown that could complete her conquest.
