The editorial Minotaurwhich we owe for putting such unquestionable references as JRR Tolkien or Fahrenheit 451 in the hands of the Spanish reader, publishes this June a story that takes us to a universe halfway between dragons and humans where magic, adventure and the fight for freedom are intertwined in a plot that connects with the most epic tradition of fantastic literature.
In the last and bloodiest war between men, one of the sides resorted to the forbidden power of dragons through Argia, the most powerful magician who has ever set foot on the planet of the two suns. They say that it was after the destruction of that last war that the magician gave birth to the first of the dragon trees: half human, half dragon.
Many Cycles later, on the unusual peninsula of Terradraga, two orphaned dragon trees will fit together the pieces of the story that unites them. To do this, they will live an exciting adventure in which magic, love and courage will become the flame that feeds the fire of freedom.
A crossover novel that uses the best resources of classic adventure to shape a story that traces a particular “hero’s journey” starring a young dragon tree in search of his destiny.
