The Bound and the Broken

Ryan Cahill

5 books

A self-published epic fantasy that stormed reader charts on word-of-mouth alone, following young Calen Bryer as he discovers a connection to dragons in a world where the Dragon Riders — the Draleid — have been hunted to near-extinction. Cahill writes with the scope and emotional weight of classic Tolkien-era fantasy while keeping the pacing tight and the character bonds central. An essential read for fans of independent epic fantasy done at the highest level.
