Brandon, how many years ago did you read this?
Over 5 years.The book is definitely not new. I cant remember names/tites/publish dates etc unfortunately
I have some other details. There is a northern frontier set up to guard a place that has been cut off for a long time, but i cant remember exactly why. On the other side is freed slaves, and a valley with the last dragonrider. Once the protagonist becomes a mage/wizard, he gets a staff and ends up wandering around the country. There is a stirring of an invasion from the other race that he finds out first hand.
Solved Book is Lords of the Sky by Angus Wells :)
A young boy who leaves a fishing village. Takes a boat with other young boys as they go the main city to join a magicians guild. The book includes a servant race of people that are totally sub-servant. That can eventually get released past a boundry in the north (protagonist befriends one). The magicians eventually earn their staff and can wander the country. I also believe it has a race of people that invade via airships. Japanese type Honor culture. Eventually the protagonist and a few others go over the northern boundry in search of Dragons and become dragon riders. I also think that one of the members of this invading army is captured and they wipe his memory. Protagonist has visions of dragons. Has a best friend, love interest and the soldier from the other race as friends and they all become dragon riders.
(Not a Raymond E. Feist book if anyone makes a connection lol)I also believe it is a Standalone and quite a large read. But i could be wrong and never checked for a series
Seems very generic and i hope im not crossing books lol.
If i remember correctly the cover of the book is a valley and a dragon. But im not 100% sure.
