The Exceptional S. Beaufont

The first dragonrider in over a hundred years has been born...and it’s a girl. Never before has a female been chosen to ride a dragon. The Elite, a guild comprised exclusively of dragonriders, is dead according to most. No one has seen a rider in decades. The problems they used to fight overwhelm the world. Dragons are thought to be near extinction. However, the Elite aren’t dead...It’s just that a bunch of crusty old men who do nothing that benefits the world at large are easy to mistake as useless corpses. Sophia Beaufont is about to change all of that.

Thad Reinhart doesn’t just want dragonriders gone because their role as adjudicators threatens his businesses. His grudge is personal - but there’s one thing he didn’t anticipate. S. Beaufont isn’t like any dragonrider before. She’s modern, thinks differently, and definitely doesn’t look like a dragonrider. When it comes to tackling challenges, she uses new-world thinking for old-world problems.

Only a few dragonriders exist, and only five dragon eggs are left in the world. After they are gone, dragons and riders will be gone forever...unless one woman can change everything. The only problem is that Sophia Beaufont doesn’t know what to do. Magitech is seeking to ruin the world. Everything hangs in the balance, and not even Mother Nature can fix things. However, something is being orchestrated behind the scenes, and S. Beaufont strangely feels like it involves her. Can she help save the Dragon Elite? Or will magitech destroy the planet?

The dragonriders have been given a second chance, but that only draws more attention to them. Many powerful people want dragon eggs, and they will kill for them. The Gullington has never been more unsafe. Harboring dragon eggs is dangerous business. Sophia Beaufont feels the pressure to protect and also defend like never before. Being a mama to eggs isn’t easy, and yet, S. Beaufont would have it no other way.

Dragon eggs have been stolen, but Sophia isn’t deterred. She will get them back and make the thieves suffer - once she figures out where to look for them.... The stakes are higher than ever as Sophia is sent on mission after mission to help the Dragon Elite, do Subner’s bidding, and also save those at the Gullington who are still cursed. Quiet might be better, but the housekeeper for the castle is still sick. Sophia won’t stop until she finds a cure for Ainsley. But saving the eggs, the housekeeper, and her friends is going to take harnessing the strongest power in the world.

Sophia Beaufont hopes that she can turn an enemy into an ally. She just has to track down the steampunk cyborg. The problem is that Trin Currante thinks the Dragon Elite want her dead. And she’s excellent at avoiding death - as her history of surviving and prevailing over adversity has shown. Meanwhile, Hiker still struggles to hone his powers.... Regardless of his strength, Ainsley doesn’t show signs of softening toward the leader of the Dragon Elite. If anything, he should fear the housekeeper might poison his next meal.

It’s hard for S. Beaufont to imagine that dragons were nearly extinct when they’re now hatching so rapidly. However, for every good dragon, there’s an evil one. That’s the way the angels set it up. But can things be changed? Can an evil dragon turn good? And if so, is it possible a good one can switch, too? As new evils lurk in the world, Sophia works to manage the new population at the Gullington. Never before were there so many possibilities for maintaining justice. But never before were there so many trying to break the law.

S. Beaufont is about to learn firsthand that good doesn’t exist without evil. Crushing evil only makes it expand. That’s why the Dragon Elite are trying to protect the demon dragons. But fighting the politics surrounding them isn’t easy. And when mortals fear that evil dragons will take over the world they become an irrational force. Sophia has to do what she does best and employ strategy to overcome perceptions. And if that doesn’t work then she’s going to kick some serious butt to protect her dragons.

Nevin Goosemen has lost everything: his career as a politician, his magitech army, and his reputation. He’s very, very angry at the Dragon Elite, and he’s going to try and make them pay with their lives. The Dragon Elite have had their fair share of enemies, but no one like this. Nevin Goosemen isn’t going to rest until he’s destroyed every single dragon and rider. It’ll be a race to protect the demon dragons before it’s too late.
