Dragon's Path
In a world teetering on the brink of war, a young man named Maz is thrust into a dangerous quest. He must navigate treacherous political landscapes and ancient prophecies to find a legendary weapon that could save his people. Along the way, he gathers a band of unlikely allies, each with their own secrets and skills, who will become his found family as they face overwhelming odds.
Dragon's Path is the first book in The Dagger and the Coin series, and while it introduces the world and characters, the overarching narrative benefits greatly from reading the books sequentially to fully appreciate the political machinations and character development.
This series, including Dragon's Path, showcases Abraham's skill in intricate world-building and character-driven narratives, similar to his work on The Expanse series (co-authored as James S.A. Corey), but it delves into a more traditional epic fantasy setting with a focus on economic and political intrigue rather than space opera.
