My Latest Books
The Blue Order and the Pendragon Accords kept England safe from the threat of dragon war since the days of Uther Pendragon and Dewi.
Until now.
Bad enough to face a dragon war, but to be the only man able to change its course? Frederick Wentworth faces the inconceivable.
Not what he signed on for when he accepted his title as baronet.
Sir Walter Elliot’s arrival brings a different sort of war to Lyme when he demands Anne resolve his latest crisis. But Anne and dragon Kellynch have far more serious matters to attend to as they discover yet another, unexpected front opening in the impending conflict.
Dragons behaving badly hardly describes the atrocities Anne discovers. Can Anne, Wentworth and Kellynch and their Friends navigate a way through uncharted waters to avert a war that could devastate the entire kingdom?
Controlling Fire, Earth, Water, and Air with a simple touch would have been much more impressive if it paid the bills.
For nearly 200 years, the Wrights have controlled the Elements, shaping them to their will,. But, the new era of industrialization threatens their extinction. Journeyman Wright Rebecca Fuller has more important things to worry about, though, like paying bills and keeping a roof over her head. Unfortunately, she inherited her father’s debts along with his shop. With the Guild limiting her prices, even a brisk business barely makes ends meet.
If only the Guild would consider her application for Mastery. But between having the audacity to be female and having studied under the most unconventional Master in the Guild, her chances were as thin as Air.
Unfortunately for Guild Undersecretary David Enright, barrister, procedural maven, and all-around rule-follower, the Guild violated its own tenets where Rebecca was concerned. With her irascible temper and unorthodox approach to working the Elements, she’s exactly what he wants most to avoid. Unfortunately, he can’t simply ignore her.
Rule-following aside, though, what she knows, what she can do, could be the key to saving the Wrights from extinction.
Audacious barely describes David’s strategy to right old wrongs. If Rebecca agrees, his plan could solve both their problems—or cost them everything.
Myths older than most of the settled worlds of the Kayavan System warn that when the Kayavan comet appears, storms will upset the balance of power.
The part about the comet signaling fierce storms was true enough, as to the rest? It made for entertaining media feeds but wasn’t enough to stop the biggest sporting event in the system—Lighten’s Ring Fighting Championships.
Arilyn Lysand, one of Lighten’s most talented pilots, has a fraught relationship with the Transport Guild Master, preventing her from achieving much of anything. Skirting the edges of Transport Guild rules isn’t exactly the way to get out of her dead-end job at the Ship Yard. But she’s ready to use whatever she can to her advantage, and when forced to fly the Guild Master to the Championships, she plans to use the opportunity to make new connections and improve her prospects.
Lord Heir Matteo Sennet, heir to the largest Clan on Dextra, struggles with his own fraught relationship with his grandfather, Lord Timnon. Sent to the Championships to rub shoulders and make connections on behalf of his Clan, he has his own intentions in mind, plans which will require hiring a pilot once he gets to Lighten.
Flying Matteo on his personal errand starts off as a simple side job for Ari, but quickly unravels into a tangle of danger, unexpected alliances, and political intrigue destined to change the future of the entire Kayavan System. A storm worthy of Kayavan’s Rising.
