The Blade and The Bird by kqbooks

She'd spent many years playing in this forest as a child. While Selene had enjoyed her novels in the warmth of the house, a blanket wrapped around her narrow shoulders, Sidra always came home covered in mud and scrapes from hours out in the wilderness. She'd take an axe out into the forest and pretend to fight off monsters, the terrifying Mystics that her grandmother had told her stories about. She'd pretend to fight Lycans, knocking out their massive teeth one by one. She'd stand atop rocks and throw her axe at the trees, pretending they were wood nymphs come to steal her away. She'd always return home and tell Selene about the monsters she'd fought that day, spinning together a story of courage and bravery for her little sister. She felt that pain in her heart again as she thought of those times. Through the years, she'd stop going into the woods to play, and she'd instead find stories for Selene. Books of all sizes and shapes, no matter the content, because it made her feel close to her sister just as she had before her parents died. She thought of her family now, how she was all alone. Her parents had been gone for years, her grandmother, and now even Selene was missing somewhere. She needed to find her sister, she couldn't lose the last bit of her family. **

Grim Stonebreaker harbors an unmet thirst for justice and claims no memory of life before he was taken as a child. In one final attempt to delay the inevitable, Aeryn leaves home under the selfless guise of reuniting Grim with his family. She quickly discovers that the world, and her traveling partner, are more dangerous than she realized. Try as she might, she can't shake the pain from her past. When Grim's connection to an ancient power embroils them in a long-dormant conflict between dragons, the pair must race across the North to rally his people before the Rune Reaper finishes the genocide he began decades earlier. But if there's to be any hope of setting things right, Aeryn and Grim must confront their ghosts, and survive.
