The Draconis Memoria

In the world of the Draconis Memoria, the Ironship Trading Syndicate has built its empire on the blood of drakes—rare creatures whose harvested essence grants extraordinary powers to the few known as the Blood-blessed. But the drake bloodlines are failing, and if they collapse entirely, war with the rival Corvantine Empire will follow. The Syndicate's desperate hope rests on rumors of a far more powerful breed of drake, and three unlikely souls are sent to find it.

Claydon Torcreek, a petty thief and unregistered Blood-blessed, is pressed into service and dispatched into wild, uncharted lands. Lizanne Lethridge, a seasoned spy and assassin, undertakes a perilous mission deep into enemy territory. Corrick Hilemore, a naval officer, pursues brigands only to discover a far greater threat lurking at the edge of the known world. As their paths converge amid clashing empires and hidden dangers, all three must fight to prevent a war that could drown civilization itself.

The second volume of the Draconis Memoria series plunges deeper into a world on the brink of ruin. The Ironship Trading Syndicate staked its future on a perilous expedition, and Claydon Torcreek survived it—only to unleash a nightmare. The legendary White Drake, slumbering for millennia, has been awakened with the power to compel an army of Spoiled slaves and reduce civilization to ash. Driven by a vision he dares to trust, Clay and rebel naval officer Corrick Hilemore hijack a warship and race toward the icy southern seas in search of an ancient secret that might save their people.

On another front, Blood-blessed spy Lizanne Lethridge uses her diplomatic cover to infiltrate enemy territory and hunt for a device that could turn the tide. As revolution ignites and the world burns, the survival of civilization rests on the shoulders of these few Blood-blessed, each fighting their own desperate war against the spreading catastrophe unleashed by the White Drake's awakening.

For centuries, the Ironship Trading Syndicate thrived on drake blood, empowering their Blood-blessed warriors. But now, the source of their power has birthed a devastating threat: a mighty White Drake. This beast commands an army of creatures and corrupted followers, the Spoiled, unleashing a war that imperils humanity itself.

Scattered across the world, rogue Blood-blessed Claydon Torcreek, sharp Syndicate agent Lizanne Lethridge, and stalwart Ironship captain Corrick Hilemore are united by a common, desperate goal: to defeat the White Drake. Their fight for freedom will demand immense sacrifice, forcing them to harness ancient knowledge, revolutionary technology, and forge alliances with unexpected partners. As their world teeters on the brink, they face a stark choice: be consumed by flames or rise reborn from the ashes.
