The Dragon's Rising (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781087813332)

Centuries ago, Rakar Gorxand was chosen by the Twelve Ancients to eliminate darkness from the world wearing a suit of armor imbued with the Ancients' power. Over time, he became corrupted by the very evil he sought to eliminate until he became the largest source of darkness on the continent of Naegleria.
Now Falkier Inalumin, a wrongfully imprisoned court scribe, has been granted a sword containing the spirit of the Dragon Ancient. With this sword in hand, he must travel across Naegleria on a quest to locate the pieces of a new suit of armor capable of eliminating Rakar and correcting the Ancients' mistake.
