Dragonspeak - Austin Valenzuela

. .

Résumé :
On the day of the vernal equinox, the fifth years of St. Daemonus are initiated into pastordom only after successfully sacrificing a dragon. In doing so, they become blessed, fusing a bit of the draconic spirit with their soul. Rebekah is ready to become a renowned apostle at the cost of one measly dragon's life. She passes the equinox test with flying colors, soon discovering that Lord Jericho has greater plans for her. The Lord of St. Daemonus wishes her to become his primary servant-a powerful, blessed pastor who protects her Lord. Rebekah agrees, and pastors lead her to the harbor, where she will conduct a final, more necessary sacrifice. The last thing Isaac's father left him with before shipping him to St. Daemonus was a notebook depicting an era when pastors lived in peace with dragons. Yet, because of the world around him, Isaac throws the notebook away and chooses to take the equinox test. When he fails miserably in front of his classmates, he bears one last glance at his father's notebook, discovering a bigger secret about the Lord's plan to sacrifice a student at the island's harbor, during the dark hours of equinox night. While the world is rewarding Isaac for every little step he takes, his best friend, Boyd, has always been aware of Lord Jericho's ultimate power over the church. In time, though he doesn't want to, he'll eventually have to leave his best friend behind because of his childish incompetence. After all, Isaac had taken the equinox test and sacrificed a dragon. His soul might be tainted. He might even be working with Jericho. In Isaac's Blessing, three rogue students escape from the church of St. Daemonus while the horror surrounding them evolves into more than deceit.
