Court of Embers by Cate Corvin — book slip

Which flame burns hotter, love or vengeance?

We broke the Laws of dragonkind, yet we live, bonded as one mind. And now we rise from the ashes to burn the corruption from Akalla. My sister threatens to bring down the eyries one by one, driven by a cruel goddess.

Though the Houses have no reason to trust us, we're their best hope—nothing will stand in my way when it comes to my sister's destruction. Together we will claim the throne, and put an end to the infection spreading across the land.

Laws will be shattered. Houses will fall. Alliances will be forged in the fires of war. And to save my mate, I will make an irrevocable choice. I will give the life I had, and be reborn in blood and flame.
