Myths of the Mirror

In the distant mountains of the Mirror, exiled skyriders fly dragons in the old Way, merged in flesh, blood, and bone. Twenty years past, they fought for the freedom of the valley’s dragons … and lost.

Imprisoned in the stone lair, the captive dragons beat their webbed wings and thrash serpentine tails. They tear their flesh and batter their bodies against the black bars of their cells, iron grating against iron. The once peaceful creatures howl, tormented by spine and spur, their fury matched only by their despair.

Treasa, the daughter of exiles, seeks the secrets of a hidden past and a father she never knew. Gifted with visions, she glimpses pieces of years long lost and a veiled future that only raises more questions. The dragons visit her dreams, laden with contradictions that tear at her heart—for one day she sails in unfettered flight, her arms thrown wide, and the next she writhes in tortured darkness, desperate to be free.

The lair’s black-garbed riders sense the dragons’ growing savagery. Yet Conall longs to grasp their power, to subdue them and soar. He will endure the reek, filth, and terror of the lair to earn his right to fly. With a heart encased in steel, he masters the weapons of compliance to see his will done. At the cost of the woman he loves.

Then, a curved talon rends flesh and dragon scale, rattling against white ribs. Blood falls like rain, and the world shifts. Treasa and Conall must decide who they are and what they stand for. Thus the battle for the dragon soul begins again. Alliances form, old myths are revealed, and new myths are born.

Myths of the Mirror may be read as a stand-alone coming of age fantasy novel, appropriate for young adult readers, or as the first book in an epic adventure that stretches from the village of Taran Leigh and the mountains of the Mirror to the Anghard Archipelago in the western sea.

Conall and Treasa face a world where wealth and power rule. Fear is the weapon of choice, and cruelty is tolerated for a pocket of gold. It’s a world that forces a choice—indifference, complicity, or defiance—each choice defining the core of who they are and who they will become. The dragons of Taran Leigh, souls of grace and beauty, hang in the balance.

Audiobook Review: Myths of the Mirror by D. Wallace Peach

I just finished Myths of the Mirror, and I’m in hangover mode—the kind that only follows a story that wraps around your soul.

D. Wallace Peach's lyrical prose and worldbuilding are nothing short of mesmerizing. This is a tale of dragons and exile, of ancient magic and deeply personal quests. Through the eyes of Treasa, a girl drawn by dreams and ancestral secrets, and Conall, a boy who would break himself for power, we are thrust into a world where freedom is a memory, and the sky is a broken promise.

The audiobook performance only deepens the immersion. The narrator breathes atmosphere into every shadowed mountain pass, every dragon's cry of fury, and every heartbeat of resistance. The voices are nuanced, deliberate, and as haunted as the story demands.

This isn’t a high-speed tale of sword fights and easy victories. It’s a slow-burning, poetic saga where the air smells of iron and ash, and the cost of freedom is etched in bone. The dragons are not mere beasts, but symbols of spirit, rage, and the deep yearning to rise.

Haunting, evocative, and utterly unforgettable—Myths of the Mirror is a must-listen for fans of immersive fantasy, emotional depth, and the aching beauty of language well used
