Curse of the Ice Dragon by Tara West

A warm welcome to Tara West as she is visiting with us today!!!!!  Leave a comment for a chance to win an e-book from Tara.



This book was the first I have read by Tara and what a great adventure, it is a captivating and fast-paced story. Marcus's adventure takes him to the Ice people, where he meets Ura who helps him prepare to take on the Sky Goddess. He must risk losing the life of his brother or keep the girl he loves safe and alive.

You get to know each of the characters on a level that draws you in. You will either love or hate Marcus and want to destory the goddess just as much as he does.

This non-stopped action story will keep you right on the edge of your seat till the very end.With it being first in a series you will want to read the next one to find out what will happen to Marcus.

Thank you Tara for a great adventure story! Can't wait till the next one!

Excerpt :

Markus had pushed Ura too far. He had not meant to upset her, but he did not wish to live in denial. If the ice was not impenetrable, he would be putting all their lives in danger by staying.

Standing, Ura turned from him, her back rigid and fists clenched. “Some say it is growing unstable,” she said toward the wall in a strong whisper. “That is why Ryne left. The debates have caused much dissension in our kingdom.”

Markus swallowed. What if Ice Kingdom was not the strong fortress that Jon described? “And, what of your thoughts, Ura?”

Spinning on her heel, she strode back to his bed, flashing him a warning glare. Gone was sweet Ura. Harsh lines had replaced soft features. She was no longer a girl, but a woman torn.

“My thoughts are that you must not speak of it again,” she spat. “The hour is late. I must finish father’s supper, land dweller.”

Turning away, she marched across the room with rigid steps and lifted the flap to leave.

“My name is Markus, Ura,” he called, refusing to let their talk end with enmity between them. He knew not how it had happened so quickly, but he needed this girl’s friendship. He did not wish to lose it.

Exhaling a deep groan, Ura turned, brushing a palm across her forehead. “You must get some rest, Markus.” A slight smile lifted the corner of her mouth. “I will bring your broth soon.”
