Heartwarden Chronicles: What Dragons Keep

Left alone and waiting to die. A sacrifice. A monster. A book to bridge the maw.

When Remifain Tetralance, artist and son of a former merchant hiding in a forgotten village at the edge of the Aste Wood was offered as a sacrifice to an ancient dragon, he expected to die. So he marched there intending to die with some dignity. Instead of fire and fury, he found carved pillars of impossible beauty. A mountain of gold, silver and other valuables and most precious of all to him-books. Unable to resist the temptation, the gaunt mousy morsel found himself reaching for a tome.

From the shadows, silver-eyed and surprised, the mistress of the volcano watched in stunned silence as the creature she had meant to let go did what no other mortal had before. She was accustomed to groveling, worship, pleas for mercy and desperate cries for pity much to her annoyance. This one reached for a book. As she revealed herself to him, Remy startled and turned, but again, instead of seeing her as the monster so many insist she is, he greeted her with a simple request to read before she ate him.

As both Liora and the object of her fascination, Remy, navigate one another-and a world growing steadily more aware of them-they'll discover that there are things no claw can cut, no scale can deflect and that are more precious than any hoard. They might find things worth protecting.
