He\u2019s wedded to his freedom, and the thought of bonding with a dragon has some pretty serious downsides. If he doesn\u2019t sign on to become magical, though, he\u2019ll be left behind\u2014also not an acceptable outcome.<\/p>\n

Distant relatives to dragons, sea-serpents are gaining strength shockingly fast. Breeding farms spring up on distant outposts, spitting out all manner of evil. Banished eons ago by the dragon god, the serpents are making a comeback. As the dragons seek allies, they uncover still more atrocities.<\/p>\n

Katya, dragon shifter and twin to the dragons\u2019 prince, thought she wanted Johan as her mate, but he has more rough edges than she counted on. Besides, the serpent problem supersedes everything. She\u2019s used to dragons being in charge, but when a serpent almost steals her will, it\u2019s quite the wakeup call her magic isn\u2019t as potent as she always assumed.<\/p>\n

I’m basically a mountaineer at heart. I remember many hours at my desk where my body may have been stuck inside four walls, but my soul was planning yet one more trip to the backcountry.\u00a0There’s a timeless element to the mountains. They feel like old friends as I visit them, and visit them again. There’s nothing like standing on a remote pass where I’ve been before and seeing that the vista is unchanged. Or on an\u00a0equally\u00a0remote peak. Mountains are the bones of the world. They’ll prevail long after all of us are dust. It feels honest and humbling to share space with them. I hope I’m blessed with many more years to wander the local landscape. The memories are incomparable. They warm me and help me believe there will be something left for our children and their children after them.<\/span><\/p>\n
