The Dragonborn Farm Boy (ePub)

In the land of Eldoria, dragons have been extinct for centuries, and the once-revered Dragon Riders are now nothing more than a legend. Espen, a young farm boy, discovers a mysterious stone while plowing his family's fields. The stone, which turns out to be a dragon egg, hatches a beautiful sapphire-scaled dragon that Espen names Saphira.

As Espen and Saphira's bond grows, he discovers that he has become the first Dragon Rider in generations. Under the guidance of an old hermit named Roran, who reveals himself to be a former Dragon Rider, Espen learns to harness his newfound powers and the ancient magic that flows through him and his dragon.

However, Espen's peaceful life is shattered when war erupts between his homeland, the kingdom of Westhelm, and the neighboring realm of Ostaria. As the conflict escalates, Espen and Saphira find themselves at the center of the struggle. Westhelm's King Aldric seeks to use Espen and Saphira as weapons to crush Ostaria, while Ostarian spies attempt to sway the young Dragon Rider to their cause.

Torn between his loyalty to his homeland and his growing doubts about the war's true purpose, Espen must navigate a treacherous web of politics, betrayal, and ancient magic. As he uncovers a sinister plot that threatens both kingdoms, Espen realizes that he and Saphira may be the only hope for bringing peace to the land.

With the help of a small group of allies, including a cunning thief named Lia and a disgraced Ostarian knight named Garrick, Espen and Saphira must unravel the secrets of the Dragon Riders' past and confront a malevolent force that seeks to destroy both kingdoms. In the end, Espen must choose between the duty to his homeland and the destiny that awaits him as a Dragon Rider, knowing that his decision could either save the realm or plunge it into eternal darkness.
