Burning embers were all that remained of... These seven words launch five wildly different stories. It's a fantastical ride through five enthralling worlds! Neri, a half-dragon, is ordered by the Elderwyrm to recover a stolen item and punish the thieves, but the mission becomes more complex than previously expected. Newlywed Alizeh uses her powers of fire manipulation to secure a hydra's help in saving her dragon's eggs and to free her husband's kraken from a watery prison. Corporate warfare reaches the stars when a freighter pilot and his partner are extorted into transporting experimental and dangerous cargo. In order to save her village, a woman and her brother risk their lives, and the life of their dragon, as they travel through time. A daring young dragon must survive encounters with several unpleasant humans before she can secure her own personal hoard of gold.
