Book Description
The peaceful planet of Theras, a Territory in the southern sector of the N'varda Galaxy, has been invaded! An unknown enemy, brutal and bound on mindless, inexplicable destruction, invades the home of the High Seat and Cai'rin dei Theras (Queen of Theras), Ahloren Vindor'hien, the Bearer of the powerful Sword of Heaven, and because of the planet's limited technology and weaponry the beautiful capital city, Malkhyrin, is overrun within the hour. But the real reason for the invasion is known only to a few. Drakoor s'et is an arch demon who came secretly to Theras months before, seeking the fabled Sword of Shadows thought lost forever. His plan is to use the Sword of Shadows to kill Ahloren Vindor'hien and so take possession of the Sword of Heaven when she dies. He befriends Jaryth, the youngest son of Ahloren, who is introverted, gullible, and innocent and seeks after adventure, and promises him the adventure and excitement he so craves. Drakoor, in truth, wants and needs both the Sword of Shadows and the Sword of Heaven to free Iionn, his master and brother, still trapped in the Void where Kurrn, the Creator of all things, has banished him and his rebellious brethren forever. Drakoor, disguised as a u'man (human), convinces Jaryth to help him, and because of his love of history and study, Jaryth manages, through intensive investigation and superior intelligence and Sword-enhanced instincts thanks to his unique birth from his Sword Bearer mae (mother) to track down the Sword of Shadows. Deciding not to tell Drakoor, and thinking to rather take the Sword to his mae when he finds it as a peace offering for being absent from home for so long, he goes off on his own and discovers the Sword of Shadows hidden in a cave off the southern coast of Theras. But what Drakoor had not told the boy was that the Sword needs a host in order to be effective, and so, as Jaryth approaches the Sword, a creation of Kurrn, and a very powerful and destructive weapon meant only for His angels to bear, it agonisingly transfers into him to Drakoor's utter fury. Thanks to her spies, Ahloren is aware of what has happened to her son that he was misled by an evil being and found the Sword of Shadows and mourns bitterly for him in private. Therefore, she has no choice on the day the palace is invaded when, in an act of pure desperation, an act that will hopefully protect N'varda, home to thousands of other races and species, against annihilation, she transfers the Sword of Heaven into her daughter, Khyri (the main character of the story) who never wanted it, and never wanted to be queen and High Seat of Theras, although she is next in line to the throne. Khyri's eldest brother, Khyl, now Keeper of the Sword Bearer, has been given the task of protecting his sister and training her to use the Sword, and as the royal family (Khyri, Khyl, and Brahn, the second oldest of Ahloren's children, and Aa'rel and Jae'el Beloruuis, their cousins) flees the capital, little does Khyl know just how difficult this task will be for him. For the weeks and months following the transfer, Khyri, a once spirited, happy seventeen year old girl who infected others with her joy and love for life, now refuses to speak, the shock and grief of what has happened rendering her literally speechless. The brother she once loved and adored above all others is now her enemy, especially when she learns of her mae's and Khyl's secret longstanding plan to transfer the Sword into her against her will if it looked like the demon was getting too close. As they travel steadily south away from the main invasion, Khyri withdraws into herself completely, and her family is left with a shell. That is, until she is 'pulled' inexplicably towards a decimated city where, under a pile of rubble, she finds the near dead figure of Ren dei Pal'din. His entire race (the Abronisi) was decimated by Drakoor's forces, and his parents, the king and queen of the realm of

Book Description
War is coming to the North, whether it wants it or not. They are ill-prepared, fragmented, and unenthusiastic about the prospect - unlike their opponents. As the powerful joint Kingdom of Turnobae-Galorndan scrambles to forge an alliance that will give them the men to oppose the Sword Bearers' Army, what they need most is time... Rather than face a massive army of religious fanatics who have found a symbol to rally behind, the Burning Rose are sent into Ras Natara on a twofold mission. First, a diplomatic approach to the Sultan to persuade him to diffuse the situation before it gets out of hand. Then, a clandestine trip into the heart of the Nataran desert to find the prophecised dragon and kill it.

Book Description
War! Invasion! Massacre! Betrayal! Mercenaries! The Burning Rose have quite spectacularly failed in their mission to avert a war with an enemy that has a dragon. As a punishment, they are not allowed to take part in the desperate defence of the North against the massive army of fanatics fielded by the Sword Bearers. Instead, they have to journey into a legendary wasteland and find a talisman that can help them defeat the dragon. Without the dragon, it might just be possible to defeat the Nataran army that outnumbers the armies of the North by at least two-to-one.

Book Description
A return to the vivid fantasy world of the highly popular Sword-Dancer saga, featuring iconic characters Tiger and Del. Sword-Bearer marks a return to the vivid world of Jennifer Roberson’s highly popular Sword-Dancer saga, featuring iconic characters Tiger—the South’s most famous and gifted sword-dancer—and Del, a Northern-born woman and expert sword-singer. Tiger and Del have settled into semi-retirement to raise their daughter, establishing a school for those who wish to become sword-dancers, part of a highly ritualized rite in which specially trained sword-fighters are hired to settle feuds among rich and powerful desert princes. Death-dances are few and far between; the goal is simply to win within the confines of “the circle.” But Tiger is an outcast, a man who attained the highest level of achievement at the training school he attended faster than anyone before him, only to voluntarily break all oaths in order to save Del. By doing so, he made himself a target of men formerly his colleagues, now sworn enemies. He is constantly challenged to death-dances where rules, and oaths, no longer apply. Now, with the world around them falling victim to a malignant Northern-born magic, Tiger gathers Del and his adult son, Neesha, to end the magic threatening the world—and discovers, along the journey, yet another element of magecraft within himself. Yet even as Tiger learns more about his gifts, Del comes face to face with the daughter she left behind so many years before. Fans of Roberson’s bestselling series should enjoy this wildest of rides alongside the Sandtiger and Delilah.
