Rogue dragons become heroes when a millennia-old curse is revealed. But knowing the cause of a disease and curing it are two very different things.

And when most of the victims of the curse would rather not be cured of it at all, it gets a whole lot harder.

Far up in the frozen wastelands of the bitter north, a ruined citadel holds the key to the Rage, and dragons alive and undead, sane and mad, good and evil, converge there to decide the fate of their mighty race. For a half-golem dragonslayer ending the curse has become less a mission of duty than of love, and that only makes it more vital that he succeed.

It’s been a difficult year for Dorn and the allies but before it’s over more blood will be spilled. The Year of Rogue Dragons draws to a close.

The Ruin is the third title in a trilogy exploring the ancient secrets of dragon society in the Forgotten Realms world. Author Richard Lee Byers has written the entire trilogy, and the cover art for the trilogy and the associated anthology have been rendered by award-winning fantasy artist Matt Stawicki.
