Título Original: Slayers: The Making of a Mentor
Género: Fantasía, Juvenil, Ingles.
Serie: Slayers 00
Sinopsis:
Before dragon eggs
landed on American soil. Before a Slayer camp existed. And before Tori
discovered her powers . . . there was an island. Lush forests, jutting
peaks, and sloping hills covered St. Helena—the single most remote
island in the Atlantic. And it is here where Dr. B grew up, working each
summer on the Overdrake plantation alongside his brother. All was well
until the day something was discovered on the plantation and things went
horribly wrong.
Título Original: Slayers
Género: Fantasía, Juvenil, Ingles.
Serie: Slayers 01
Sinopsis:
Dragons
exist. They’re ferocious. And they’re smart: Before they were killed
off by slayer-knights, they rendered a select group of eggs dormant, so
their offspring would survive. Only a handful of people know about this,
let alone believe it – these “Slayers” are descended from the original
knights, and are now a diverse group of teens that includes Tori, a
smart but spoiled senator’s daughter who didn’t sign up to save the
world.
The
dragon eggs have fallen into the wrong hands. The Slayers must work
together to stop the eggs from hatching. They will fight; they will fall
in love. But will they survive?
Título Original: Friends and Traitors
Género: Fantasía, Juvenil, Ingles.
Serie: Slayers 02
Sinopsis:
The Slayers – teens who
have powers to fight dragons—are back by popular demand in this
high-octane sequel, now with a new cover package!
Tori is at a White House dinner party when she hears a horrifying sound: dragon eggs hatching. It means in less than a year, the dragons will be mature and dangerous. The Slayers are well-trained, but their group is not yet complete, and Tori is determined to track down Ryker Davis, the mysterious Slayer who has yet to surface.
What Tori doesn’t bargain for, however, is the surprising truth about her powers: she isn’t a Slayer after all, but a Dragon Lord, with a built-in predisposition to protect dragons, not kill them.
How will she overcome this to save the lives of her friends?

Título Original: Playing with Fire
Género: Fantasía, Juvenil, Ingles.
Serie: Slayers 03
Sinopsis:
Having superpowers is
overrated. It requires Tori to go to way more team practices than can
comfortably fit into a normal teenager’s schedule. Being a dragon slayer
has other drawbacks too—like fighting dragons and keeping one step
ahead of power-hungry dragon lords, all without blowing her cover.
Tori Hampton is a presidential candidate’s daughter, which means she not only has a public reputation to maintain, she also has a humorless bodyguard to ditch every time she needs to go on a mission.
And Dr. B has plenty of missions for the Slayers. When he discovers that someone is selling dragon scales on the black market, he’s convinced the seller can give him the dragons’ location. A surprise strike could turn the tide in the Slayers favor, but when they track down the seller, they find more than they’ve bargained for.
Suddenly, strategies need to change, alliances shift, and Tori finds herself caught in the precarious middle.
Jesse, the captain of the other Slayers team, is everything she wants, but then there’s Dirk, the dragon lord’s son—who also happens to be her ex-boyfriend. He’s determined to convince her that she should love dragons, and love him too. The fact that he and his father plan to overthrow the government? Details not worth arguing about.
Tori believes she can turn Dirk around and convince him to rejoin the Slayers, but he’s just as convinced that she should leave the Slayers and become a dragon lord.
Dirk can teach Tori how to control dragons, and it’s a skill she desperately wants. It could make all of the difference in a battle. It could save her friends’ lives. When Dirk offers to let her ride a dragon, she knows that meeting him is like playing with fire.
