Turning war: the gryphon mage part i, the

Nathan Bedlam has managed to free most of the human mages from the Dragon Kings' control, but the struggle against the drake lords has not gone well. With treachery at every turn, Nathan knows that the one hope the rebels have is to seize Penacles, the City of Knowledge. Yet, to do that will require forcing the Gryphon to realize the power within him, a power that may also prove the rebellion's downfall.  The Turning War is a three volume saga answering many of the questions concerning the Dragonrealm and the Dragon Masters and how those events yet reverberate in the current timeline.
