Dust of a Moth's Wing

The age of Fire begins in six days.

For fifteen hundred years, Slate and the other rebels have trained students to return Fire's energy to the city of Wen. All have failed. Only one is left, and Nokhum's past is less than ideal. If he cannot convince the Council of Elders to allow Fire magic to return, chaos will claim the city. The rebels are determined to avoid that end- even if it means sacrificing his student to chaos's demons to make the Council believe Fire's energy is necessary.

Magically talented people are disappearing.

Nokhum is convinced that his life-mate is still alive- no matter what everyone else says. Human slavers who salivate for magical beings have taken her. Realizing the Council of Elders will not help him, he seeks forbidden magics to find her. His plans are derailed when Slate sends him out of the city for training. Will his time in the Whisperwood be his undoing?
