Book Description
One Emperor's evil plan ignites old prejudices and sets the provinces on the path to war. From award winning author Susan Faw, creator of The Spirit Shield Saga, comes the first box set in this epic dragon fantasy series! HEART OF DESTINY Magic suppressed. Magic exiled. Magic murdered. During the Great Purge, those openly practicing magic were destroyed and those who could wield it were driven into exile. To keep the peace, the emperor erects a magical barrier isolating the provinces from one another. When the emperor suddenly dies, his apprentice takes his place. Benevolent and loved, Madrid is seen as a benign ruler, bridging the age-old conflicts between the provinces. However, the brazen kidnapping of ten young women shatters the accord, and the councillors of the provinces gather at the Citadel to demand that justice be served. It is a flame dropped into dry tinder. Rife with suspicion and hatred, each province accuses its neighbour of treachery, but Emperor Madrid has other plans. He alone knows who is responsible for the kidnapping of the young women, and he has no intention of sharing that knowledge. HEART OF TYR Infected elemental magic. An entombed witch with a thirst for revenge. A secret map no one can read. In a world where magic is forbidden, Elissa is gifted with a crystal heart pendant. Heirs of magic, the necklaces are not just a pretty baubles but indicative of forbidden magical blood. Heart bearer Elissa scoffed at her brother's belief in dragons. That is until one abducted her on her eleventh birthday. Flown to the isle of Jintessa in its claws, Elissa discovers that not only are dragons real, but also the shapeshifters of legend. Bonded telepathically to a Djinn Dragonmerger named Druzy and his dragon Mysty, Elissa is given a mission to return to Tyr and free her home from the tyranny of an emperor determined to control all magic. Hunted by her magically enslaved brother, can Elissa free her people and bring down the barrier, without destroying Ellas, in the process? The battle for ultimate control of magic, has begun. HEART OF SHADRA A gritty rebel with dangerous ties. A secretive mine that buries the truth. A handful of ancient bones with dark origins. Shikoba, feisty daughter of the tribal queen Aisha, has been trained since birth to defend her people. On the cusp of her final trials, she is swept away by a dragon and a Djinn shapeshifter. Bearer of a crystal heart, Shikoba has been marked to free her people from the tyranny of Emperor Madrid. Shikoba is tasked with the destruction of the barrier that isolates her people from the other provinces, but an ancient evil stands between her and their freedom. Existing only in legend, the Naga is a fierce creature of magic and myth with a secret of its own to protect. Can one young woman gather the courage to protect all that she loves? The cost will be bitter – her death in the sacred salt mines of Shadra. Only the spirits of the ancestors can say for sure, who will prevail. IF YOU ENJOY EPIC FANTASY SERIES SUCH AS THE LORD OF THE RINGS, ERAGON, OR THE GREEN RIDER SERIES, then this series is for you!

Book Description
“Not only is this book the best sort of true-crime writing, but it is also a stunning exploration of the concept of manhood in America” (Sebastian Junger, New York Times–bestselling author of War). Through six detailed accounts of murders involving gay men, American Honor Killings examines the facts of cases that are too often politicized, sensationalized, or simply ignored. David McConnell researched killings from small-town Alabama to San Quentin’s death row, and here recounts both notorious and lesser-known crimes. We may tend to think these stories involve either the perpetrator’s internal struggle over his own identity or a victim’s fatally miscalculated proposition. They’re almost never that simple. These riveting narratives reveal how different factors played into each case, among them ideas and beliefs about masculinity. Together, they form a secret American history of rage and desire. In each story, victims, murderers, friends, and relatives come breathtakingly alive. The result is a true-crime book of unusual power, depth, and psychological insight—“a journalistic tour de force made all the more impressive by jailhouse interviews” (Publishers Weekly). “A masterpiece of reportage . . . At turns heartbreaking and terrifying . . . If Truman Capote were alive today, he would die of envy. David McConnell has taken the mantle of great American nonfiction writer.” —Evan Wright, author of Generation Kill
