Book excerpt: From award-winning author Daniel Fox comes a ravishingly written epic of revolution and romance set in a world where magic is found in stone and in water, in dragons and in men–and in the chains that bind them. Deposed by a vicious usurper, a young emperor flees with his court to the small island of Taishu. There, with a dwindling army, a manipulative mother, and a resentful population–and his only friend a local fishergirl he takes as a concubine–he prepares for his last stand. In the mountains of Taishu, a young miner finds a huge piece of jade, the potent mineral whose ingestion can gift the emperor with superhuman attributes. Setting out to deliver the stone to the embattled emperor, Yu Shan finds himself changing into something more than human, something forbidden. Meanwhile, a great dragon lies beneath the strait that separates Taishu from the mainland, bound by chains that must be constantly renewed by the magic of a community of monks. When the monks are slaughtered by a willful pirate captain, a maimed slave assumes the terrible burden of keeping the dragon subdued. If he should fail, if she should rise free, the result will be slaughter on an unimaginable scale. Now the prisoner beneath the sea and the men and women above it will shatter old bonds of loyalty and love and forge a common destiny from the ruins of an empire.

Dwarves are mystical craftsmen, humans are big and strong, and halflings breed explosively, but none of them can match elves for sheer magical firepower. Angrod Veneanar is a young elf. He's nearing the end of a long apprenticeship and looking forward to going home. As a nobleman he loves wine and women-he doesn't care at all about shadow conspiracies, forgotten magics, or long-lost royal heirs. Unfortunately, there is a prophecy, and it looks like he's in it. Now he's on the run. Accused of murder, what seems like the entire kingdom wants him dead. He has knights, mages, and even arcane assassins on his trail. Worse, something is riding in his head and threatening to take over his body. To survive, Angrod must use all his skill in weapons and wizardry. He must find new allies and uncover fresh strength. And if he is to stand a chance of defeating his greatest enemy, he must rediscover a master spell that's been lost for centuries. If he doesn't, he's just going home-to die.

Book excerpt: "Paging Dr. Lilly O'Shea. Paging Dr. Lilly O'Shea." Even through the blissful darkness of sleep, I hear the voice on the intercom calling me. I want to scream, "I hear you, I hear you!" I jump up from the dingy cot in the doctor's lounge and grab the phone; "Dr O'Shea, what do ya need?" "Dr O'Shea, we got a MVA coming in, multiple vics", this from the operator. "Ya, be right there", I reply. I just left the E.R. less than 30 minutes ago, and here I am on my way back. I hate it and I love it. This is the life for me. I chose to become a doctor, and an E.R. doc at that. Did I do it because I love helping people? Nah, not exactly. It was the one profession that would require my complete undivided attention when at work and it's a total opposite of the profession, if that's what you call it, of my crime boss father and his two loyal sons. Yes, my father is what you might call a don. The head of a violent, but successful mafia syndicate. My brothers both work for him; both hoping to succeed him. How my mother deals with it all; I'll never know. Actually, that's a lie; I know how she deals with it. She simply chooses to ignore it, the whole thing; like it doesn't exist. You would think that my parents would be so proud of me, a doctor. Worked hard, got good grads, graduated from one of the top colleges in the country; and then turned around and graduated magna cum laude from Harvard Medical School; at the top of my class, of course. Funny, but my father, David, actually thought I would follow in his footsteps. Early on I demonstrated a penance for violence; cold blooded, heartless, malicious violence. Just like Daddy; boy was he proud that day. Dr. Lilly O' Shea is successful, weathly and beautiful. She is also the daughter of David O'Shea; head of the largest Black crime syndicate family on the east coast. What more can she ask for? Well, maybe peace of mind. Journey with her as she fights to stay out of the family business, while battling her own bloodlust for violence, her own stone dragon. Will she win the fight and, unlike her two brothers, stay away from Daddy and his 'family business'. Or will she succumb to the lure of the dark recesses of society, allowing her own penance for violence overcome her? Like a dying man caught in the ocean's riptide; will Dr. Lilly O'Shea, doctor, healer, saver of lives survive?
