Azrael Morningstar has never wanted to be a hero. At eighteen, his life is simple: work at his father's forge, practice swordsmanship whenever he can, experiment with the unusual combination of fire and lightning magic he can barely control, and someday save enough money to leave the quiet coastal town of Veyrath. Because beyond the shores of Nythrath lies a world Azrael has only ever read about. Human kingdoms stretched across Elarion. Ancient elven forests and dwarven strongholds hidden throughout Aetheryn. Demihumans, mythical creatures, dragons, forgotten magic-and countless places he has dreamed of seeing since childhood. But the world beyond home is far more complicated than the stories made it seem. Old hatred still divides races. Kingdoms guard secrets beneath generations of peace. And as Azrael is drawn further into conflicts larger than himself, he begins to discover that doing the right thing isn't always as simple as knowing what is right. Armed with a sword, an inconvenient habit of helping people who never asked him to, and two kinds of magic that really should not be mixed together, Azrael sets out into a world much larger than he imagined. He only hopes he can find his place in it.

Then, in one night of bloodshed and fire at the dawn of the new millennium, they were gone. Thirteen years later, nobody knows whom is responsible, how it was done, or why. The year is 2013. In the Schwans absence, the delicate tapestry of polite lies and political compromises that has held their supernatural world together is fraying at the seams. The remaining six houses royal jockey for position. Revolution simmers beneath the thin surface, and the adults are too attached to how things used to be to recognize the darkness coming.

One retainer searches for answers whilst another, long retired, protects her charges from royal and commoner alike. A regent-in-exile hunts a forgotten monster through the city's back-alleys and dark shadows. And in a farm-house outside the city, long occluded from sight, a power stirs, its bearer abruptly forced into a world that will hunger to control him, or destroy him entirely. *** Glassblade is a fantasy novel, the first in the Wielder Saga, and updating every other week on Fridays.

What if the Myth were real and everything else mattered not? What if your very soul hung in the balance? Enter a land where the Myth is real, but many have forgotten or scorn the Truth and those who fight to uphold it. The adventure is about to begin, for even those who fight for justice are about to rediscover why. This story is not just another tale of an orphan who finds a magic sword, discovers a forgotten lineage, finds a few friends, and conquers an overwhelming evil. This is a story that crosses a continent, transcends time, plunges deep into the very soul of man, and explores all the vastness and intricacies of life. It is a story of good and evil, love and war, truth and absurdity, courage and faith, hope and despair, humor and adventure, and everything that moves the human soul. Whether viewed as Truth or Myth, it is a tale to make one think and a story full of adventure, intrigue, love, sorrow, hope, and humor: much like this dance we call life. It is a fairy story in that it involves unicorns, dragons, and other uncommon beasts and certain aspects of magic, but it is also a human story that explores the questions, doubts, fears, and triumphs common to the hearts of men. The Brethren are an ancient brotherhood entrusted with preserving and disseminating knowledge, truth, and justice since time began; they have survived indifference, hostility, disaster, war, plague, and obscurity but ever they persevere in their age-old duties. Of late, they have fallen into obscurity due to over-caution and the forgetfulness of the people they serve. A strange encounter rouses them from their secrecy and sends one of their most talented agents into the heart of a sworn enemy only to unveil an even older and more dangerous foe.
