Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Kira Ashvane has spent her whole life as a mystery even to herself - a nameless toddler found wandering the Ash Road, raised by the smith Orrin among the Ashforged and never quite fitting the shape of any single Order. When the long-dormant Founding Gate beneath the town of Thornhollow tears open and Kira discovers she can wield all four disciplines at once - a 'Fourfold,' a gift the Concord hasn't confirmed in three hundred years, not since the catastrophic Sundering that same power once caused - she's thrust from apprentice obscurity into the suspicious, closely watched center of Council politics. Forging her own ember-bright blade, Fourlight, and building an unlikely found family out of Toren's fire, Mira's steady ground, and Dael Rennick's quiet, steadfast loyalty, Kira has to prove that a power built for destruction three centuries ago can still be chosen for something else entirely.But Kira isn't the only one who sees what she is. Malachor Vess, a Riftborn-touched exile with a three-year plan and a patient, terrible interest in exactly what she could become, is maneuvering events toward a second, older Gate - and toward Kira herself. As rumor, fear, and a fractured Council close in around her, Kira and her allies race to seal the Founding Gate before Vess can turn her potential into his weapon, culminating in a battle that costs her nearly everything and earns her, at last, formal recognition as the Concord's first confirmed Fourfold in three hundred years. It's a hard-won, quietly hopeful ending - the city rebuilding, old enemies softening into wary respect, a found family finally at peace - right up until a rider arrives with word that a second Gate, half a continent away, has just begun to glow the same arterial red as the first.…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Book Two of the Dragonsworn ChroniclesA grief no Shape can mend. A sickness with no name. A mountain that finally learns to stay.A year into her bond with Threnody, Wren Calder has finally stopped bracing for the Aerie to take it back - until a rescue mission goes wrong in a way no one walks away from clean. Cadet Renn Ostler doesn't come home, and the dragon he leaves behind starts wasting from the inside out. He isn't the only one. Across the mountain, bonded dragons are dulling toward gray for reasons no healer or Council record can explain, and Wren's own untrained Will picks the worst possible chamber to finally slip its leash.The answer doesn't come from the Council. It comes from a defector with nothing left to gain by telling the truth, a healer-in-training too stubborn to stop asking, and words carved into a sealed vault three centuries ago by someone who understood, long before anyone had a name for the sickness, exactly what a bond is for. Wren is done waiting for permission to be the one who stays - and she's about to find out how far that refusal to look away can actually carry her.Not treasure. Not weapon. Trust. The fist that takes what was offered freely deserves nothing it grasps.…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Three years of war have taught Wren Calder how to fight. They have not taught her how to stop.Vashtar Corim believes the Order's shortage of bonded riders can only be solved one way - not through choice, but through control. His Chainbound rite has turned the horror of coercion into a weapon, and with the mass-binding at the Cinder Throne nearing completion, he intends to finish what three generations of his family began: an army of dragons that never once said yes.Wren has one answer to give him - the same one she's spent this entire war proving, one frightened creature at a time. That consent, freely offered, is stronger than anything taken by force. But proving it to a single yearling in a quiet clearing is nothing like proving it inside a caldera full of chained dragons, an army bent on finishing what it started, and a working that has never once been built to survive being refused.With Threnody's storm-charge running dangerously thin, a reformed enemy at her side who was never given a choice of his own, and everyone she loves holding the line just long enough to buy her one more chance to reach, Wren has to walk into the heart of Corim's rite and offer it the one thing it was never designed to receive.Some wars end with a blade. This one ends with a choice.STORMBOUND is the fourth book in the Dragonsworn Chronicles.…

Taschenbuch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - Six months of Council meetings have produced sympathy, minutes, and a rider who keeps getting worse. The fix that saved Ashwing isn't holding for Elin Voss and Rimeglass, and Wren has run out of patience for an institution that keeps mistaking caution for a cure. When the answer turns out to be locked inside Chainbound medical record the Aerie has never been allowed to see, the Council says no - so Wren goes anyway, off the mountain and off the map anyone sanctioned, into Chainbound territory itself, the enemy she's never once had to look at up close. What her team finds in a Chainbound archive is worse than a cover-up: generations of clinical record proving the coercive rite's true cost has always been known and always been hidden, and a name buried decades deep that finally connects her parents' deaths to the very raid that broke Threnody, years before Wren was old enough to remember either of them. Then Lord-Sorcerer Vashtar Corim finds them first - and offers Wren exactly what she's spent this whole book begging her ownCouncil for. A real cure. Faster. Working. Hers to control this time, instead of his. All it costs is the one thing her parents refused to trade away on that same ledge, for the same reason, long before her. The archive gets out. Not everyone does. Not treasure. Not control. Just the harder, slower, honest thing - chosen again, on purpose, even after it's already cost her everything it's about to ask for next.…

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. A hundred years ago, one warden couldn't finish the slaughter. Now the debt comes due.Mira Vosk has spent nine years diving past the guild's legal depth limits, chasing quota in the drowned caverns of the western basin - until the night her light catches a wall that answers wrong. Behind it: four eggs that were never supposed to exist, sealed away a century before by a warden who couldn't bring herself to finish what the Concord ordered. One of them is still warm.What hatches changes everything.Bonding with Cael isn't just illegal - it's the one crime the Concord built its entire century of power on preventing. As Mira learns to hide a rapidly growing dragon from a world that has never once been told the truth about why dragons are scarce, she finds an unlikely ally in Rennick Thale, an Emberwarden carrying his own decade-old guilt over a bond he was ordered to sever by force. Together they uncover a founding-era memorandum that reveals the Concord's darkest secret: scarcity was never survival. It was the fence that kept them necessary.When High Warden Ilsevet Corr's Ashguard come to collect what the archive says belongs to them, Mira and Rennick are left with an impossible choice - vanish quietly, or burn down a hundred years of comfortable lies in the process of getting Cael back.Some truths are worth being hunted for.

Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. What happens when the battle follows you home? For Ray L. Buzzard, leaving the battlefield did not mean leaving the war behind. After serving his country, Ray returned home carrying invisible wounds that would affect every part of his life. Trauma, painful memories, addiction, broken relationships, anger, and loneliness gradually pulled him into a downward spiral. The man who had once found strength in service found himself struggling simply to find a reason to keep going. Eventually, his choices led him to incarceration and sixteen months behind steel doors. But sometimes the darkest moments become the beginning of a new life. My Two Lives is Ray L. Buzzard's raw and deeply personal military memoir of survival, struggle, addiction, loss, and redemption. With honesty and courage, Ray looks back at the experiences that shaped him, the mistakes that nearly destroyed him, and the people and moments that helped him find his way back. This is more than a story about military service or the aftermath of war. It is a story about what happens when a person is forced to confront his past, accept responsibility for his choices, and discover that a broken life can still be rebuilt. For veterans, military families, survivors of addiction, and anyone who has ever struggled to overcome the weight of their past, My Two Lives offers a powerful reminder: Your worst chapter does not have to be your final one. Ray's journey is one of falling, fighting, healing, and learning to live again. Two lives. One survivor. A second chance. This item is printed on demand.
