Drakons - La série

Livre 1 de Drakon Dans les montagnes des Carpates vivaient autrefois les Drakons, êtres supérieurs doués de pouvoirs surnaturels. Persécutés, leurs descendants ont trouvé refuge en Angleterre, sur un domaine que seuls les plus puissants ont le droit de quitter. Leur seigneur, Christoff de Langford a, dit-on, un visage d'ange et un cœur de démon. Mais un insaisissable cambrioleur, le Voleur de Brume, défraie la chronique à Londres. Christoff en a vite la certitude, ce passe-muraille n'est autre qu'un Drakon fugitif qui met en danger la communauté et doit être capturé à tout prix. Toutefois il ne s'attendait pas que le Voleur de Brume soit... une femme ! Aussi belle qu'intelligente, Clarissa est, décide-t-il, la seule digne de devenir son épouse. Qu'elle le veuille ou non, elle lui appartiendra...

Jadis, les Drakons, ces êtres capables de se transformer en dragons, régnaient en harmonie sur les cieux. Mais la disparition de Draumr, " le diamant qui rêve ", les a précipités dans le chaos. Aujourd'hui, en 1773, le clan Langford vit retranché à Darkfrith, en Angleterre. Lady Amalia en est la benjamine, et les siens ignorent qu'elle " entend " le chant du diamant et qu'elle peut lire l'avenir. Alertée qu'un funeste destin les attend, Amalia va rejoindre Zane, le voleur de diamants qui écume l'Europe à la recherche de Draumr. D'abord furieux de la présence de cette encombrante jeune fille, Zane se rend vite compte que ses dons lui seront très précieux lorsqu'il leur faudra affronter leurs ennemis dans les sombres montagnes des Carpates.

En 1782, le peuple-dragon anglais, sous la direction du comte Kimber, décide d'annexer les derniers drakons de Transylvanie. Mais la princesse hongroise Maricara, dotée du rare pouvoir de se muer en dragon, refuse de sacrifier son indépendance, faisant souffler chez les siens un vent de liberté d'autant plus dangereux que des mystérieux traqueurs semblent résolus à exterminer leur race. Les gentlemen anglais et les exotiques habitants des Carpates pourront-ils ensemble contrer leurs féroces adversaires ?

It's the fourth book in the Drákon Series, the story of Rhys Langford and Zoe Lane. Rhys is a full-fledged drákon, meaning he has all the usual Gifts of his kind: he can Turn from human to smoke to dragon; he has super strength, stealth, grace, and the ability to hear the music of metal and stones. Plus, of course, all that deadly drákon charisma. Too bad he's been kidnapped by the sanf inimicus, his human enemies...and he might even be dead. Zoe, like most females of her kind, can't Turn at all. But she's developed a few other surprising Gifts of her own. She's going to need every one of them if she's going to help Rhys--which, frankly, she hasn't decided yet she really wants to do. They've got a history, these two. And it isn't sweet. Zoe and Rhys turned out to be quite the characters. I think they're both a little more gritty than some of my previous protagonists, and I like that. Their story is set primarily in eighteenth century Paris, a few years before the revolution. Lots of turmoil, lots of drama and action.

From the highly acclaimed author of The Treasure Keeper and Queen of Dragons comes this mesmerizing new novel of the drákon, a supersensual race of shapeshifters whose world exists side by side with our own. In The Time Weaver, a young drákon woman discovers she possesses a unique gift, one that brings her closer to her destined love—at the cost of their very lives. Honor Carlisle may have been born into the drákon clan but she’s always felt like a stranger to her kin. It’s an intuition that proves true when she receives a mysterious letter—a letter sent by her future self. Honor learns she is a Time Weaver: a creature with the extraordinary ability to transport herself into the past or future. But the letter contains a dire warning. If Honor remains in her home at Darkfrith, she is certain to be killed. Fleeing for sanctuary among old friends in Spain, she practices her Weaving and unknowingly draws closer to an even more immediate danger. For on one of her Weaves into the future, Honor encounters the very man she should most avoid: the prince of a rival tribe of drákon. Drawn to Prince Alexandru of Zaharen, Honor is unable to resist the temptation of Weaving to him again and again across time. As they surrender to a desire that brings the present and future ever closer, they realize they are true soulmates. But they also risk fulfilling a terrible prophecy—for their union is destined to wreak havoc. Now Honor and Sandu must place their trust—and their lives—in each other’s hands, and their faith in a magical love that could restore order to the drákon universe—or destroy it forever.
