Where knights and dragons once marched together for honor at the behest of the Good King, nothing remains but sad and broken lore about the glory of the Old Way. Now, titles of nobility are only granted by the spilling of blood under the Order of the Black King.  In the small forest village of Ark, Kalos has lived alone with his father for as long as he can remember. After a strange encounter at the exotic Mercari Fair, which arrives only once a year, the two must immediately depart for the port city of Blefcynn on a mysterious quest. Traveling to the port, Kalos discovers unexpected truths that cause him to question everything he believes. Wild with anger and uncertainty, Kalos ditches his Father that night after arriving and takes off into the city on his own. Soon he encounters a girl unlike anyone he has ever met before and falls into a trap. After returning to the inn where he left his Father, they tentatively make amends and attempt to get some rest only to be abruptly awakened into a chaotic, wide-spread fight for survival a few hours later against an army of ruthless pirates bent on ransacking the city... "A Reaper's Legacy" is book one of an Epic, YA Action/Adventure/Fantasy series with Coming of Age undertones set in an alternative world where pirates, dragons, and knights are woven into the same era, and friends and enemies alike must interact in unexpected ways just to survive. Kalos must conquer overwhelming obstacles while rapidly evolving from the boy he thought he was into a man he never expected to become throughout his journey. Despite the many years of combat training Kalos received from his Father, war, pirates, and unyielding forces threaten to crush him around every corner in this first installment of the Draguntome saga.
