About this ebook

Imagine a world as rich as Tolkien’s Middle-earth, a plot as multifaceted as Harry Potter, an adventure that rivals Eragon, and characters as memorable as the Wings of Fire dragons. The Legend of Oescienne is an epic fantasy series beloved by children and adults alike!

A headstrong girl, determined to stand on her own, an arrogant dragon, questioning her every motive, and the answer to an ancient prophecy centuries in the making. High fantasy at its best!

For seventeen years, Jahrra has remained hidden from the sinister Crimson King, but that is all about to change. An inconceivable tragedy and the revelation of a secret kept from her since birth has turned her world on its end. Now, Jahrra must flee Oescienne, the only home she’s ever known, and accept the help of the dragon Jaax, the one being she has grown to mistrust more than anyone else.

With her enemies at her heels and the terrifying truth looming before her, Jahrra and Jaax seek refuge in the faraway city of Lidien, a place protected by ancient magic.

But when their sanctuary proves to be as vulnerable to darkness as Oescienne, Jahrra and her dragon guardian realize their safety is compromised once again. This time, the danger lies within the walls meant to keep them safe, festering in the hearts of those they’ve grown to trust above all others.

About the author

Jenna Elizabeth Johnson grew up and still resides on the Central Coast of California, the very place where the Legend of Oescienne first began to blossom into the epic it has become. "The province of Oescienne is based primarily on the topography of this area, and some specific locations in the novel reflect actual sites. These places are dear to me, and I wanted to share their natural magic with those who might read my books." Miss Johnson has a BA in Art Practice with a minor in Celtic Studies from the University of California at Berkeley. It was during her time in college that she decided to begin her first novel, "I had these stories stored away in my head and had even sketched out some ideas during my studio time. One day it dawned upon me that if I didn't write these stories down, then I would be the only one ever to enjoy them. Furthermore, reading such works as Beowulf, The Mabinogi and The Second Battle of Maige Tuired in my Scandinavian and Celtic Studies courses only added fuel to the fire." Having a degree in art has also aided her in the creation of the world of Ethoes. The cover images, the map of Oescienne and all of the artwork found on her website, www.oescienne.com, was done by the author. "Having a picture, especially a map, helps me to visualize the story more completely. I hope that the images I have placed on my site will help my readers get a better idea of what my world looks like. Of course, you are always welcome to disregard them if the images you have in your head are better than the ones I offer." Besides writing and drawing, Miss Johnson enjoys reading, gardening, camping and hiking. She also loves animals and bird watching and has many bird feeders set up in her garden at home.
