The series follows a diverse cast of characters, including knights, dragons, mages, and thieves, as they navigate a world of political intrigue, ancient prophecies, and epic battles.

Another strength of the series is Knaak's world-building. The Dragonrealm is a richly detailed world, filled with diverse cultures, ancient histories, and magical wonders.
