    Summary

    Of all the ways Essek thought he might find himself staring down mortality, his magic making a cancer of his lonely heart never even entered his consideration. But then, his calculus has never been able to account for the Mighty Nein.

    There is a remedy for his illness, of course. There is always a way to unwind magic, but there is always a price. The cost of Essek’s life, now that he’s contracted Hanahaki’s disease, can be paid two ways—one is higher than Essek can bear and the other, well.

    The other can only be paid by someone else.

    And if Essek could ask that, then he wouldn’t be sick at all, would he?

    Summary

    Jerusalem had fallen. Now, on top of the indignity of having to walk - walk! - to Alexandria to avoid getting shot out of the sky, Yusuf al-Kaysani has the double misfortune of being saddled with a filthy, empty-headed, exasperating Frank who doesn't even seem to know what his wings are for.

    But after an explosion of temper reveals something about his enemy that Yusuf could never have fathomed in a thousand years, Yusuf finds himself looking at his companion in a whole new light. Suddenly tasked with helping Nicolo achieve a dream, an unexpected spark of compassion is born, that leads to forgiveness, to friendship, to all and more.

     


    Every love story is a kind of dance.


    Or - Yusuf and Nicolo live in a world where everyone has wings. It changes a lot about their world, and nothing about them.

    Summary

    “Nicolo would never risk the fates of children over his own.”

    “And look where that got him!” Andy roars, her throat burning with a desperate rage that has nothing to do with the pills, and right there, in that precise moment, she watches, devastated, as the words carve ruin into Joe’s grief-stricken face.

    She hears the tiny intake of Booker’s breath, sees the even tinier lift of his shoulders towards his ears.

    An Old Guard, incomplete, and how they find each other again.
