Welcome to the DragonHawk Saga!

Tonight I'd like to introduce you to the new look of the DragonHawk Saga. To celebrate this new look, I have released an extended version of Dragon Hunter and the brand new Book Two, Dragon Heart! Both are available from your favorite online bookstore. There are links below and links on my website: www.davetransou.com.

Dragon Hunter

Ten thousand seasons have passed since the end of the DragonHawk War and the collapse of the Star Empire. DragonHawks and Dragon Hunters have faded into obscurity. The Star Trader Galaxy is a shadow of the old Star Empire and its inhabitants, the Star Traders, a far cry from their Star Folk ancestors.

The InWorlds are entangled in a long and bloody war that will see the death of the Royal Republics and the rise of the Planetary Corporations. Their colonies in the OutWorlds, cut off from their royal masters by the war, have declared their own independence and struggle to organize their own Frontier Council.

The Star Traders walk a thin, dangerous line. Declaring their neutrality in the struggle of the Royal Republics, they nonetheless open their Trade Stations to the warring factions, making tremendous profits from the business of war. Meanwhile, Independent Traders from all of the Families are flocking to the OutWorlds to trade with the struggling colonies. As a backdrop to the unrest, the old legends of the Star Empire are coming back to haunt the Star Traders as rumors of DragonHawks and Dragon Hunters are whispered about the Trade.
A surprise attack on a neutral system, an attack by Dragon Hunters against the StarHawke Tycho, the discovery of a young female DragonHawk living among the Tolen Star Traders, and a dangerous Black Dragon in Conborine challenge the StarHawke Tycho, the formidable Lady Mani Hawkes, and their sons Elias Hawkes and Bane Sollar as the Drakkon of Tycho and their fierce Hawkkur Legion prepare for the Return of the Great Dragon, the DragonHawk who will restore the Star Empire and bring peace to the Thousand Universes of the Known Galaxy.

Dragon Heart

Ten thousand seasons have passed since the DragonHawk Wars and the collapse of the Star Empire. DragonHawks and Dragon Hunters have faded into obscurity. The Star Trader Galaxy is a shadow of the old Star Empire and its inhabitants, the Star Traders, a far cry from their Star Folk ancestors.

The Royal Republics War continues to slowly grind, as neither side can gain an advantage over the other. The once magnificent cities of the InWorlds lay in ruin, what’s left of their populations growing more and more desperate as an uneasy stalemate settles over the combatants. The black markets are flourishing, as smugglers fight among themselves for the best routes and markets.

In the aftermath of the Battle of Conborine, the Frontier Council is struggling to respond to what some called a “surprise attack” by the StarHawke Tycho’s Hawkkur Legion. Meanwhile, work on the repair facility has ground to a halt as the bruised and battered Star Traders from T&B Spaceyards anxiously await a desperately needed relief mission from Gaanard.

The Trade continues to struggle with a coherent trading policy towards the InWorlds and the OutWorlds. Trading with the Royal Republics has significantly decreased due to the war. Meanwhile, the Star Trader Council is divided on what to do about the StarHawke Tycho’s action on Conborine, as rumors about the battle run rife throughout the Trade.

Fresh from their victory over the Rahhol DragonHawk Nafiss Atou, the Tycho Star Traders are celebrating the growing romance between Lord Elias Hawkes and Lady Annie Tolen. Many seasons from now, Star Traders would tell their children the story about the evil Rahhol DragonHawk who sent his Dragon Hunters to kidnap a beautiful Drakkon Princess, knowing that the brave Drakkon Prince who loved her would not hesitate to come and rescue her.

Meanwhile, the Hawkkur Legion remains on a war footing, as Rahhol DragonHawks and Dragon Hunters come out of hiding to attack the Tycho Drakkon. Time grows short as they prepare for the Return of the Great Dragon, and the restoration of the Star Empire. The cost will be high, but all they can do is hope, that in the end, there will be peace among the Thousand Galaxies of the Known Universe.
