The siege of Arrandin is over, but the war with the East goes on. It falls to Erkal Dortrean to make peace between the Easterner chieftains and the Emperor of Lautun. The Council of Magi, now decimated by the war and beset with its own internal factions, can offer little support. Meanwhile a fragile peace treaty gains the invading Southers a toehold in the city-port of Ellanguan, and Erkal's wife Karlena must pit her wits against Southers and Lautun nobles alike to keep the Empress safe. Erkal's son Kellarn is torn between joining these conflicts and pursuing his own quest for a long-hidden artefact to protect all from the return of a far more deadly demonic adversary. As the immortal Fay are drawn into the affairs of humankind, deeper jealousies and treacheries are revealed and the danger to all the Dortrean family increases.

Once upon a time all literature was fantasy, set in a mythical past when magic existed, animals talked, and the gods took an active hand in earthly affairs. As the mythical past was displaced in Western estimation by the historical past and novelists became increasingly preoccupied with the present, fantasy was temporarily marginalized until the late 20th century, when it enjoyed a spectacular resurgence in every stratum of the literary marketplace. Stableford provides an invaluable guide to this sequence of events and to the current state of the field. The chronology tracks the evolution of fantasy from the origins of literature to the 21st century. The introduction explains the nature of the impulses creating and shaping fantasy literature, the problems of its definition and the reasons for its changing historical fortunes. The dictionary includes cross-referenced entries on more than 700 authors, ranging across the entire historical spectrum, while more than 200 other entries describe the fantasy subgenres, key images in fantasy literature, technical terms used in fantasy criticism, and the intimately convoluted relationship between literary fantasies, scholarly fantasies, and lifestyle fantasies. The book concludes with an extensive bibliography that ranges from general textbooks and specialized accounts of the history and scholarship of fantasy literature, through bibliographies and accounts of the fantasy literature of different nations, to individual author studies and useful websites.

Shy realizes that she is lucky to be taken in by her grandparents after her father dies–but life above an antique store in Slade's Corners, Wisconsin is not exactly the place a teenage girl wants to be. One day while going through boxes of her father's boyhood stuff, she comes upon a rare old set of dragon puzzles ... all of which are missing pieces. Her grandmother recalls the fantastic tales Shy's father would tell about his travels to lands of dragons and adventure. She always thought that these fantasies were inspired by the puzzles Shy has found. Shy realizes that by mixing and matching the different sets she can complete a single dragon puzzle that combines all of the others. Upon doing so she is whisked away to ancient Babylon where she must continue the duties of her father's legacy as a servant to the dragon and a savior of the world.
