Book 3 Recap· Released
TL;DR
Arthur is a Legendary card wielder now linked to a powerful dragon, Brixaby, who is still the size of a parrot. A chance encounter whisks them to the Free Hive, a dragon hive outside the kingdom that is free of the scourge and built around card crafting. An old enemy still threatens it, and the Free Hive needs Legendary wielders to defend it.
