The Open Road (DragonTide, #4) (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Welcome to a drowning world.

Long ago, the world offered prosperity and hope for all, but not now. In a new age, after the end of the Dragon Wars, the world is instead scarred and slowly dying. The storms above roll with greater fury, the forests wither, and the seas are ever-rising.

Where once great ports sat by the sea, waves now wash over their submerged towers and walls. Once green farms that reliably delivered bounty are now more and more swamped and stolen away year after year by the flooding waters.

Trade is fading, kingdoms are falling, and people are dying as the ties that have bound their societies together fray and unravel, all under the pressures unleashed by the rising waters of the Dragon Tide.

***

In this release, Kalia and Spader find themselves entangled in a brutal conflict atop the enigmatic Dragon's Mountain while their father, Ruck, embarks on a perilous journey on the open road. All Ruck knows is that his children have been ensnared in a web of slavery. He will venture into a struggling world where tumultuous rivers feed rising seas, all fed by the Dragon Tide curse.

***

Autorenporträt

Colin Taber was born in Australia in 1970 and announced his intention to be a writer at the innocent age of 6. His father, an accountant, provided some cautious advice, suggesting that life might be easier if his son pursued a more predictable vocation. Colin didn't listen. Over the past twenty years Colin's had over a hundred magazine articles published, notably in Australian Realms Magazine. In 2009 his first novel, The Fall of Ossard, was released to open his coming of age dark fantasy series, The Ossard Trilogy. The second installment, Ossard's Hope, followed in 2011 and was supported by a national book signing tour. Currently Colin is working on the final book in that trilogy, Lae Ossard, and his new series The United States of Vinland. Colin has done many things over the years, from working in bookshops to event management, small press publishing, landscape design and even tree farming. All he really wants to do, though, is to get back to his oak grove and be left to write. Thankfully, with an enthusiastic and growing readership, that day is coming. He currently haunts the west coast city of Perth.
