    Summary

    Peter's about to have this paperwork off his desk, he’s about to have this fraudster taken care of…at least for the next five years or so.

    Or, that’s what he thinks until he walks out of blistering cold—too damn cold for it to only be November—into the polished glass and marble of City National, flashes a badge, meets the manager, heads back to the security room, and sees that the security guard is holding the arm of a kid.

    Summary

    Peter swallows and looks at Tony, unable to keep the heartbroken look off his face. His hand grabs for his book bag while his other sweeps the vials up. Maybe he’s being paranoid, but he can’t risk going back into the system. He closes his eyes, for just a second, to mourn the life he could have had.

    “I’m sorry,” he says to Tony.

    He doesn’t wait to see the man’s response before he pushes through the crowd of people and runs. “Wait!” Tony calls after him.

    But Peter’s already out the door.

    -

    Before Ben died, Peter won a booth to present his project at the Stark Expo. But even on the run from the foster care system, he can't pass up the opportunity to attend and show the world his project. It all goes so well, until it doesn't. Trying to avoid being caught, Peter runs out on Tony just as the man is about to make him the offer of a lifetime.

    Bold of him to assume Tony won't try to find him.

    Summary

    Numair Salmalín, Black Robe mage of Tortall, is given two tasks: one by his king, to prevent the neighbouring country of Galla from falling and taking Tortall with it; the other by the Badger God, who tells Numair to find a young wild mage lost somewhere in Galla, the unstable Veralidaine Sarrasri, who Numair is told will be needed for what’s to come.

    His journey will take Numair through the destruction of a country and beyond, from the ruin of Galla to captivity within the hold of the pirate ship Danse Brightly, and back to Tortall where he has to relearn how to live in peace with those spared by Ozorne’s claiming of Galla. But the plots that began long before Numair ever set foot in Galla, long before he or Daine or anyone they love were even born, are still in play.

    In the end, the one task Numair and Daine have is this: them and their allies must end Ozorne’s march before it claims their children too, and in doing so they must remake the world from Divinity down. They, more than anyone, understand that a world lit only by the glory of Mithros will never be free of war.
