Book Description
There exists a very strange tower within a very strange town. You'll probably never find it. Maybe you will, if you're lucky. (That is a lie, it's not a sign of luck to find the tower, please do not come looking for it.) There is, however, another way to find it - something strange and potentially horrible just has to happen to you. You see, those stories always find the tower, some way or another. By mail, by milk carton, by wind, by fax. It doesn't matter. The Librarian collects them all - or rather, in light of recent events, I should say that he used to collect them. For he is incredibly dead. There are a lot of demons in this world, and they can be damn hard to see. Have you been paying attention?

"One of fantasy’s best series." —Booklist, starred review In this explosive conclusion to the epic trilogy that began with Fireborne, Annie and Lee are fighting for their lives—and for each other—as invading dragonfire threatens to burn their home to the ground. A new revolution is underway, and nobody will emerge unscathed. In New Pythos, Griff is facing an execution by the dragonborn, who are furious at his betrayal. He has allies on both sides seeking to defy his fate, but the price of his freedom might come at a dear cost. And Delo will have to make a choice: follow his family, or finally surrender to his conscience. Meanwhile, Annie must race home to hatch a plan to save her Guardians and their dragons. With Callipolis on the brink of collapse and the triarchy set to be reinstated, she may be the one person who can save the city—if she can overcome her own doubts about her future. Lee is a revolutionary at heart, but now he’ll have to find a way to fight with diplomacy. Going up against the dragonborn court and a foreign princess, he faces a test of loyalty that sets his head against his heart. As the fate of Callipolis darkens, Annie and Lee must determine what they are willing to sacrifice in order to save each other, defeat their enemies, and reclaim their home.
