Welcome to Fictional Bookshop! A storytelling podcast where you step inside a fictional bookshop, take a book from the shelf, and read the first chapter. This week, as you visit a mountaintop village, you spy a bookshop, where you step in from the brisk morning air to read the first chapter of A Breaking of Realms, by Jasmine Young.
---------------------------------------------------------
From the back of the book:
Build realms. Follow the rules. Never go rogue.
The Realm-Building Enterprise is open to all. On the continent of Elondria, anyone may become the next legendary dragon rider by building the greatest towns, cities, and even realms.
All it takes is hatching an egg—a legal one, that is.
Skálda Branwright dreams of leaving the Longcold and becoming the first Dragonlord to build an official realm. But that may prove difficult after she defies the Enterprise and rescues a wild hatchling.
This is no ordinary dragon. It was best kept dead. The Enterprise is a human’s path to a glorious future—but it is ruthless to those who would defy the elves that made the rules.
She never meant to steal a dragon. She always meant to build a realm. She never wanted to break the continent.
A Realm-Breaker is coming.
An exhilarating new dragon rider vs. "Vikings" epic that merges Eragon's rich lore with the worldbuilding of Pern and the dragon magic of Ascendant.
