One mistake. Five lives. A universe in chaos. Inspired by Asian and Middle Eastern mythologies, The Dragon Pearl Series box set contains six novellas whose interconnected stories determine the fate of a universe in the novels Tamuda Rising and The Four-Day War. Packed with adventure, this complete 1400-page series is perfect for readers of epic fantasy. Book 1 - Hotsuka’s Story Banished from Heaven and no longer a Celestial, Hotsuka must adapt to his new life as the monk, Gaurang. Can he rescue his newborn son who’s destined to change the universe? Not everyone, however, wants change. Book 2 - Barid’s Story Barid, a once-elite warrior turned blacksmith, despised and ridiculed by villagers, waits for Noor: a man whom he’d die for; a man who may already be dead. When Gaurang arrives and promises the villagers a miracle, Barid must decide whether to remain a blacksmith or put his past and Noor behind him. Book 3 - Omid’s Story If he’s to save the Empire, Omid, the emperor’s sickly son, must complete Gaurang’s undertaking: to forge a sword so light and sharp it will cut a falling leaf. With a Dragoness out to sabotage the undertaking, can Omid complete the task in time, or will he plunge the Empire and the Dragonfolk back into endless war? Book 4 - Madhuri’s Story Captured by the nomadic Tamuda, Madhuri receives two gifts from a snake spirit. Thanks to the first gift, she is betrothed to the charismatic Chuluun. As Madhuri settles into her new life, she discovers her presence endangers the entire Tamuda nation. When the spirit’s second gift reveals itself, Madhuri realises she must sacrifice everything, including Chuluun. Book 5 - Babak’s Story Half-human and half-monkey, Babak befriends Kunie, the emperor’s daughter. Infatuated, he wants to be a guardsman and, one day, Kunie’s personal bodyguard. But Babak was born to serve a greater purpose. How will he react when he learns his commitment to Kunie and his destiny are not one and the same thing? Book 6 - Shernaz’s Story Abandoned by her husband, Shernaz is rescued by the Queen of Patalama and given a Dragon pearl. Thanks to the pearl, Shernaz enjoys prolonged youth and the independence she always dreamed of. When the pearl loses its power, obtaining a second carries a dreadful price. Book 7 – Tamuda Rising The Tamuda nation gathers and prepares for war. The Takeo Sura, a cabal of disgruntled Dragons, use deceit, cunning and murder to create chaos before the invading horde reaches the Imperial Fortress. While a desperate group of guardsmen try to hinder the Tamuda’s advance, the Fortress prepares for a siege. The Takeo Sura, however, have other ideas. In Tamuda Rising, the storylines for Gaurang, Barid, Omid, Kunie, Babak and Shernaz converge. Each has a role in determining the fate of the Empire and ultimately the universe. Book 8 – The Four-day War As the Tamuda battle their way into the Imperial Fortress, the Takeo Sura hamper the Empire’s attempts to defend itself. With Gaurang missing and news Babak has sided with the Tamuda, Kunie’s first days as empress are fraught. Meanwhile, Lady Shinju and the Meijin Council arrive on the Dragon Isles. Like Lord Takeo, she’s prepared for a four-day war, the outcome of which will decide the fate of humans, Dragons and gods alike. The Four-Day War is the eighth and final instalment in the Dragon Pearl Series.
