Lord Pol filled his lungs with the sweet revitalizing air surrounding him. Something has changed drastically in the atmosphere. Every breath he takes is a testament to the fact that his full array of dragon powers have returned.
Having woken from his decade's long hibernation the Dragonkin recalls his prophetic dreams. Not only will his species roam the land once more, but Pol would find a life-mate. That’s the one portion of the dream he dreads because he had no desire to replace the mate he lost decades earlier.
But Fate has other ideas and ready or not Pol’s mate will become part of his destiny.
S K Wee lives in West-Central Wisconsin with her husband. She is retired from the Postal Service and spends most of her time reading and writing but loves to travel. Her first novel, Absence of Color, is the beginning of a four-book fantasy series, Spectrum of Color, which is available through Amazon. She also has written a follow-up trilogy centered on the children of the main characters we grew to love in the Spectrum of Color Series. The Whispers From Beyond Trilogy is now available in its entirety. Since then, she had ventured into a few other genres: Contemporary Fiction with Larkin’s Landing and Lonely Hearts Complex. They are romance/mysteries set in the fictional small town of Tombora Springs in northern Wisconsin. If you enjoy paranormal fantasy check out Nun Worth Keeping where a young Catholic teaching nun is forced to make life-changing decisions. If you enjoy time travel, she has published a romance called Halwyn’s Portrait set in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan along the shores of Lake Superior. More recently, she created a portal fantasy adventure, The World of Vallis series. Three stand-alone stories will soon be offered set in that universe.
SK Wee’s idyllic fantasy world from her Spectrum Of Color Series continues to expand as she turns myths into reality and incorporates new characters from long-forgotten races and faraway lands. “Dragonkin” introduces Lord Pol, the single survivor of an ancient race of dragon-shifters once thought to be extinct. His sudden return, after a lengthy self-imposed exile, heralds a brand new age and directly impacts Mandalay’s ruling family.
In “Dragonkin”, Wee weaves a plotline that is driven by relationships. As the elder generations work to seal and strengthen political and strategic bonds, their children and friends, who are now entering adulthood, are forming bonds of their own, making lasting friendships, alliances, choosing possible mates, and falling in love. All this is wonderfully complimented by the circle of life in which the old generation makes way for the new and the young assume their forebears’ duties and responsibilities.
Wee’s characters are fully-fleshed with elaborate backgrounds and inter-connected relationships that drive this story forward well. The author’s ability to draw the reader into the story ensures a great read. In “Dragonkin”, readers will find more than one character that will pique their interest and provide lasting memories of their experiences—Besides, who wouldn’t want to learn how to use magic or be a dragon?
SK Wee’s “Dragonkin”, the second book of the Whispers From Beyond Series, expands on events that occurred in her Spectrum Of Color Series. It is an exciting and unique new perspective of the many races of humans—magically gifted and otherwise, elves, dwarves, and shifters referenced in her prior works. Although “Dragonkin” may be read as a stand-alone novel, I highly recommend reading the Spectrum Of Color Series and “Dancing Through Dreams: Book One of the Whispers From Beyond Series” in order to get your bearings and receive the most insight and enjoyment from this particular work. “Dragonkin” does contain adult situations, moderate violence, sexual situations, and depictions of slavery, and so I recommend this book for adults and young adults—ages 17 and up.
