Will Ari Ara risk everything—the crown, love, even her life—for what she believes?

Calling all readers, educators, and peace-lovers! It’s time to bring an exciting new peace novel into the world. Join the community of readers publishing River Dragon, the newest novel in the award-winning Ari Ara Series.

At long last, fifteen-year-old Ari Ara is returning to the riverlands to take up her duties as royal heir. Nervous and excited, she leaps into the heart-pounding tests that will prove she’s worthy of the throne. But hidden dangers lurk beneath the rituals of the Ordeal of Queens. Ancestor spirits haunt her. Nightmares plague her. Not everyone wants a follower of the Way Between as the next ruler. Surrounded by warriors and war culture, Ari Ara’s commitment to peace threatens her chances of wearing the crown. A hard choice lies before her: will she stay true to what she believes? Or will she stay silent so that she can become queen?

Through triumph and disaster, heartbreak and friendship, Ari Ara rises to the challenges of each test. But when a long-buried secret comes to light, the true cost of peace is revealed.

“Peace literature at its best. This book is water in a world on fire.”
