Finding the legendary sword was only the beginning.The moment Zaide pulled the blade from the skull of an ancient enemy, a monstrous army marched on Amrochan, and until the blade's magic is restored, nothing will stop the army's advance.Three Paragons bear the power to restore the Spectrum Blade to the unstoppable force it once was, and the librarian Tula knows just where to start. As the Paragon of Fire, the Magister in her home city of Jadora can aid them. But first, he must be reached-and for the first time, the desert city of Jadora is under attack.With a blade not yet fully awakened, Zaide, Tula, and Lark must breach the city walls, find the Magister, and turn the tide of war before Amrochan falls.Paragon of Fire is the second book in Spectrum Legacy, a Legend of Zelda-like fantasy series filled with quest-driven adventure, intense action, and ancient mysteries that leave you wanting more.

On the day of the Spring Choosing, when the king's army selects its new recruits, Zaide stood ready to answer the call to arms. Instead, he was pulled from the ranks to become a mage's apprentice, despite bearing no magic in his blood.One year later, with Zaide past the age of selection, the scholar's life he never wanted is shattered when his village is razed by the monsters magic should have held at bay. As the Elder's apprentice, his task is clear. He must seek an artifact in the forest's temple and restore the power that protects his home-a power he can never touch alone.But the temple is not what it seems, and his mission is complicated when he encounters a mysterious girl in the forest who bears a quest of her own: claim the same artifact, and destroy the dark forces that threaten her homeland once and for all.
