Rise of Ember (The Dragon's Call, #4)

A dragon’s power. A dangerous glyph. A choice that could shatter worlds.

Jareth never asked for the seed of a dragon to take root inside him. And he didn’t expect a dragon to emerge into the world—and stay connected to him. Now, its power stirs with every glyph he studies, pulling him toward answers he doesn’t understand—and dangers he can’t yet fight.

When ancient patterns awaken beneath the city, Jareth’s fragile control slips. The glyphs resist him, allies question him, and enemies whisper that even the Archmage’s defeat was only the beginning. Something older, hungrier, is moving in the dark.

To save his friends—and himself—Jareth must master a magic no human was meant to wield. But every step closer to the dragon’s truth risks consuming him completely.
