Rise of the Ancients

Framed for treason and murder, Jackson fled the Citadel of Night in the hope of finding refuge in the Heart of the Mountains. Only Cate, the girl who had rescued Jackson, accompanied him on his transient journey. Under King Talon, the Eternai forces prepare for a continent-wide manhunt to find and apprehend these fugitives. Jackson is granted sanctuary upon reaching the mountains, but soon learns that disappearing into the background is simply not an option. As tensions escalate, Jackson unwittingly stirs an ancient evil-the Olund'Taei, a brood of bloodthirsty frost dragons-from its spellbound slumber. Facing a now unstoppable force, Jackson is left with no choice but to search the eastern deserts for the dormant Kirin'Taei-fire dragons and sworn nemesis of their frost cousins. Only with the Kirin'Taei can Jackson clear his name and save Telosra. In this thrilling conclusion to the Chronicles of Night, Jackson must forge new alliances and traverse uncharted lands. Jackson must now be the harbinger of justice, lest the truth and future of his people, the Night, die with him. Rise of the Ancients is the third book in the Chronicles of Night trilogy by author Justin James. Read The Conquest of Night and The Citadel of Night .
