Overview
Dragões de Éter ("Dragons of Ether") is a Brazilian high-fantasy trilogy by Raphael Draccon, following a young witch hunter named Fillard Wielder through a war between human factions and supernatural forces. Published by Novo Século, a Leya Brazil imprint, between 2011 and 2013 as Caçadores de Bruxas, Corações de Neve, and Círculos de Chuva, the trilogy builds an original secondary world drawing on Draccon's background writing both fantasy fiction and role-playing-game material, blending witch-hunting intrigue with a broader magical conflict that escalates across the three books. It became one of Brazil's best-selling homegrown fantasy series of its decade, notable for achieving that success with an entirely original setting rather than a licensed or translated property, and it was released in editions in Portugal as well as a Spanish-language edition for Mexico, extending its reach across the Portuguese- and Spanish-speaking publishing markets.
