Tesser Chris Philbrook

Tesser, dragon of life, immortal force of Earth, has his hands full. He's a father to a dragon child that's about to turn one. A dragon child that smiles, laughs, knows a few words, and is the source for all magic on Earth. So long as he has Matty--Astrid's mom, and the love of his very long life--everything will be okay. So they're gonna party with the trolls, who celebrate Matty's distant troll lineage like she's one of their own, and you best believe they celebrate the dragon child that shares a tiny bit of their blood too. But not all trolls are happy with their situation beneath the Jotunheimen Mountains in Norway. Some of the ancient monsters want change; some hate it. All are nervous, and excited. But some forces in the caverns of Ygg'rasgard want change that requires blood to be spilled, and for a little girl to be taken from her mother, and father. And deeper still, other forgotten forces stir.
