Dragonkiller

Keely Staghorn is trapped in a gilded prison.
The resurrected emperor''s power expands and threatens to overwhelm her. His armies capture more kingdoms every day, forcing survivors to worship his religion or face torture. Others are marched into caves to become slaves for his allies, never seeing sunlight again.
The Draig D''Alikar warriors are scattered to the winds, battling the enemy on several fronts.
Keely''s brother, Gera D''Alikar, having already defeated two of the emperor''s sorcerers, chases a third in a desperate attempt to save their homes. Two other legends fight the emperor''s forces in losing battles while Sanchere D''Alikar searches for the dragons to beg for their help in the war.
But the D''Alikars are so far away, and the watcher whispers in Keely''s head, pulsing with rage and mounting power.
And the voice is growing louder.
Can she escape before the emperor is reborn?
