Available in EPUB, MOBI, and PDF formats. Read on your Kindle, phone, tablet, computer and more

Vespera is a rare Rendborne harboring the fractured soul of the Lunar Goddess. Forced into a ritualistic bonding with three domineering heirs for her power, she longs for autonomy amid the brutal demands of her station. Yet, the nightmares close in, becoming real as mutated, rune-branded wyverns plague Dreadmark. The clock is ticking, and Vespera must navigate deadly pack politics, a brewing rebellion led by an ally turned rival, and her own unruly divine nature. To save her world and her freedom, she must tame the savage monsters around her and within. ________________________________________ The Isle worships the lunar goddess within me, a crest-born symbol of our bloodlines and laurel to the Quiet Fang’s three heirs. They must connect with Luna to establish dominion over Dreadmark and claim the Blood Seat. I pray every morning my other half continues to reject them, finding more joy in speaking with living paintings in solitude between bouts of vicious nightmares. Yet the succession race pales in the face of monstrous wyverns, twisted with the Veyrspawn shadows that prowl across the celestial body below the floating Isles. Even with the Cold Claw’s aid in defeating one, the rendborne are losing ground, and we have no defense against an enemy that drops death from the heavens. Survival demands I become more than a prize. Before confronting the brothers’ growing, hazardous ambitions, I have to determine the source of these monsters and who is creating them. But their essence threatens my sanity. The disturbing dreams invade my reality. And I’m tormented by a past I have no recollection of. What is Luna's origin, who held the power to punish her, and why did she relinquish her soul to create such savage monsters?
