Who
can you trust when you are the key to what everyone wants?
Allakoi Meras only wants one thing: to journey south and flee from the conflict
that consumes the north. So long as he keeps his head down and avoids notice
until spring, his escape from a society that actively hates him will be
successful.
Fate, however, has other plans for him.
When an encounter with a psychopathic dragon leads to a rare and dangerous
power awakening within him, Allakoi suddenly finds himself targeted by all
entities involved in a centuries-long war—entities that are willing to do
anything to have him under their control.
Surrounded on all sides and not knowing who he can trust, Allakoi finds himself
faced with a terrible choice…
Either choose a master to be enslaved to, or risk everything in pursuit
of his freedom.
Before the Sky Breaks is the first book in The Shattered
Pulse, an adult epic fantasy series that pulls on the atmosphere and tropes
of classic fantasy while giving them a dark, modern twist. Great for fans
of The Wheel of Time, The Licanius trilogy, and The
First Law.
A broken man trying to reclaim his purpose…
It has been five years since Allakoi suffered catastrophic loss at the hands of his enemies, leaving him broken and powerless.
When salvation finally comes for him at the hands of the tsura, however, he finds himself pulled into a world of politics, tradition, and lies that he never thought he would encounter.
But the wounds of his imprisonment go far beyond what anyone could expect, and the secrets he carries are more dangerous than anyone could imagine...
A warrior desperate to defend her home…
The Dragilles have become more aggressive with every passing year, and whispers of new threats have carried south. The Camarre are losing, and it is only a matter of time before they fall entirely.
But as one Camarre territory is locked in a seemingly endless battle with its northern neighbours, its masters are given an unexpected offer: treachery in exchange for a momentary respite.
A dragon slayer with a debt to be paid...
But false peace cannot last, and when dead dragons start appearing on the border one thing becomes clear...
War is returning, and one stray spark is all it may take to ignite its fires once more.
