Randerich
Dhakari was a beautiful young woman overwhelmed by the loss of her partner. She had secluded herself from her friends and family, unable to pull herself from her grief. She preferred her solitude, unwilling to risk the pain of losing anyone else she loved.
Ryckan was a young soldier longing for a life outside the large village in which he was raised, in search of a dragon that had been marauding his town and surrounding villages. He hoped to succeed at his endeavor, Princess Dalla's hand in marriage being the prize most sought after by the young man. He had admired her since they were children, and entering adulthood had not changed his feelings towards the royal maiden.
The princess' father had died suddenly and unexpectedly, leaving the kingdom without a ruler until the princess had chosen a suitor that fit the royal council's wishes. The chancellor approved and set in motion the plan to find her one based on conquering the dragon that was making off with livestock and destroying property.
In Ryckan's search for the dragon, he discovered the secluded home of Dhakari, jarring her from the darkness she had let overwhelm her. He soon learned the secrets she kept in her mountain home, and how his life and plans would be forever changed.
They quickly found themselves involved in court intrigue, old wars and older enemies, and their own developing relationship as they must learn to work together and develop new skills in their attempt to save Randerich from those who would overrun the valley kingdom.
This is an adult fantasy novel with princesses, noble warriors, evil henchmen you'll love to hate, and life changes that will lead to many more adventures for Dhakari and Ryckan and their friends as they fight to keep the world free of tyranny and oppression by ancient enemies.

I do know the author, so I admit to a bias here. That said, Randerich: Diresson Wars, Book One is a fascinating, refreshing fantasy with fully-developed characters and an intriguing plot line. I especially love how Dhakari's character is developed: she is a strong, intelligent, heroic woman--frankly, we need more of this type of characterization in fiction.
All in all, this fantasy book is a compelling tale, and I can't wait to see Book Two.

An amazing story and a great storyteller
An amazing story and a great storyteller.
Carter has a way with words that capture you and you refuse to be let go.
Honestly, he could write about washing the dishes and it would enrapture the reader.
Well done, Charlie!
