Today we’re celebrating the release of Heather McCorkle’s fantasy novel, The Dragon Empire! For today’s stop Heather is answering the following question:
Are the dragons in your book shapeshifter?
Heather: No. While they can take other forms it is only with the use of magic, only temporary, and not all of them can do it. I figured there are enough great shapeshifter stories out there and not enough stories about just dragons, so my dragons are ‘all’ dragon. 🙂
Here is a bit about it:
On Yacrana dragons are the advanced species. But advanced doesn’t always mean civilized…
There’s trouble in the Dragon Empire, the kind that could start a war between dragons and the races of people. Hidden factions of dragons believe they should rule the lesser races, not simply stand aside and allow them to develop as they will. Having lived so long in peace, the Emperors turn a blind eye, many oblivious that such attitudes even exist.
Despite being only an architect class, emerald dragon, Grendar is willing to risk banishment and death to stop that which his rulers refuse to see. The hope of peace lies not within the scaled breast of a dragon however, but within the hands of a group of people. But if the hidden factions have their way, these people won’t live to fulfill such a destiny. With a reluctant seer at his side, Grendar must leave his precious Empire for the outside world to save those that will one day save his kind.
While The Dragon Empire is for ages young adult and up, it does contain mild violence and some difficult subject matter.

Thank you so much for the feature!
Let the readers beware. There is a dragon in the house. ^_^
I love books with dragons! My favorite series is The Dragonriders of Pern.
I love ’em too. I don’t believe I have read the Dragonriders of Pern. Now, you have given me more books to add to my TBR list. Thanks.
I have the whole series by Anne McCaffrey! They are so good! I can loan them to you if you ever find the time to read them. They are so good!
Awesome. As soon as I finish up with the mermaids, I’ll take you up on that.
That’s one of my favorites too!
Hi Heather. Guess the jury is in, I need to read faster so I can talk about them.
They were the reason I started reading fantasy and science fiction! Yours will be added to the list when I read them!! I love dragons:)
