Sisters of the Lizard

The Rakada #2 / 2
by Jackson Ford
Sisters of the Lizard (The Rakada #2) by Jackson Ford
Unrated

The thrilling continuation of a no‑holds‑barred, action‑packed fantasy series from Jackson Ford where a group of charmingly-named Bone Raiders harness the power of gigantic, fire-breathing lizards to defend their homeland from an invading enemy.

"Awesome. Masterfully executed. Frequently hilarious." — Nicholas Eames, author of Kings of the Wyld on The Bone Raiders

All Sayana wanted was to enjoy her life in the rolling grasslands of the Tapestry. After she and her fellow Rakada managed to ride humongous, fire-breathing lizards to face down the Great Khan’s army, they should have been able to kick back a little for once. Not too much to ask, right?

Instead, the Tapestry is in turmoil – invading armies threaten, the other raider clans are at war, and inside his fortress city of Karkorum, the Khan broods and plots. What’s more, the Rakada’s giant lizards are getting sick, and they have no idea how to cure them. If they die, there's no telling what might happen to the Tapestry.

But then the Rakada receive a vision – apparently from the gods. A deep emerald pool surrounded by bone-white sands – one that may be able to heal their lizards. With no other option, the raiders set out on an epic quest across the mountains and into the desert.

But the danger that awaits them will be one greater than they’ve ever faced before. These guys really can’t catch a break.

Also known as The Bone Raiders Book 2.

Jackson Ford

Jackson Ford is the kind of writer who doesn’t just break the rules—he tosses them out a window, sets them on fire, and then makes you laugh while watching them burn. Under this pseudonym, South African author and journalist Rob Boffard lets loose with the Frost Files, a genre-blurring rollercoaster of science fiction, psychic powers, and relentless, razor-sharp humor. The series stars Teagan Frost, a telekinetic with a chip on her shoulder and a knack for finding trouble in every corner of Los Angeles, all while cracking jokes you’ll still be laughing at three chapters later.

Before conjuring up high-octane telekinetic mayhem, Ford sharpened his storytelling skills as a journalist, writing for outlets like The Guardian, Wired, and the BBC. That background brings a kind of grounded intensity to his fiction—his worlds feel lived-in, his action precise, and his dialogue as fast and cutting as a live-wire exchange on deadline day.

Based in Vancouver but hailing originally from South Africa, he writes with the pulse of someone who knows how to chase a story and isn’t afraid to let his characters dive headfirst into chaos. Whether you're here for the snark, the supernatural stunts, or the deeply human heart buried under all the telekinesis and explosions, you’ll find something electric in every page he writes.

Ford’s work under this alias has carved out a distinct space in the realm of superpowered thrillers—wildly original, compulsively readable, and never, ever boring.
