A collection of three short stories from Matthew D. Ryan.
Of Dragons, Love, and Poison: The king’s daughter and son have disappeared. The nation of Heshra is in an uproar. Who did the deed? What does it portend? Amidst the swirling rumors of deceit and treachery, the king turns to the warrior, Thrigon, one of his most trusted soldiers to seek out the wrongdoer and rescue his family. If Thrigon succeeds, he may gain the princess’ hand in marriage. If he fails, both he and those he was meant to rescue may wish he’d never tried.
The Red Archer: Amgwin Altarre. The Red Archer. He is the greatest marksman in all the world of Athron. Plagued by a master thief that can seemingly strike at will anywhere in his city, Count Thadeus turns to Amgwin for help. But can even the Red Archer stop an adversary as cunning as The Hawk?
Fate Unchained: When young Prince Kyahn is born, the Royal Seer predicts that he will be the downfall of the kingdom. Devastated, his father, the king, sends him to grow up in the care of the Royal Wizard to learn the Art ignorant of his birthright and build for himself a new life. His younger twin is pronounced the heir. But is that enough to cheat Fate? Or is it the very thing that will bring the nation down?
