Vilda lives in a muddy little corner of the world
, in the time of the war that
never ends. The war between the Waterfolk and the Dreughan. She is different where conformity
is
important, break rules in a world where punishments are given freely, and she pays for i
t. If it weren't
for her best friend Troy, she would have no one.
Then Vilda saves the life of a dragon and shortly after that, things are spiraling out of control. The Waterfolk attack, searching for an unclaimed girl, and Vilda has to escape through the night together with Troy and the only other girl the Waterfolk could be looking for – their former best friend, Susannah.
Soon, they find themselves in Dragoncourt, the stronghold of the Dreughan, where a prophecy predicts t hat the war will finally come to an end when the beautiful Dreughan prince has claimed another royal from the end of the world.
It seems as if Vilda is the girl in the prophecy, and she migh t be, but she also has a strong link to a young man with black hair and eyes as blue as the summer skies – the prince's cousin, Drake...

About Lena North
The proper way to put it here would probably be to describe how I love to play with our two big dogs, adore my fantastic daughters and how muc h I love to read.
Another way would be to use my imagination and then I would be a super powerful warrior woman, think Xena the warrior princess (though with less tacky clot hes). Or when I think of it, maybe I'm actually more of a Hercule Poirot (sans the suit and moustache). Or maybe I'm like Aragorn, strong and cool and then I might get to meet Gandalf! Or I could be Bella's pretty cousin and snap Jacob up in a second (yeah, I'm so not team Edward), or wait, maybe I could be like one of them heroines in historical novels who swoon all the time. I've always wanted to swoon ...
Well, I guess you get how my mind is working (or not worki ng, some say). Anyways, I like to write. Stories, adventures, romantic and happy stuff mixed up with sorrow and hardship, and bit of laughter here and there because the way I see it – life is way too short to go around feeling grumpy.
