The Widow's War
The guns did not fire.
The guns did not fire.
Nine sovereign dragons held the sky over Daggerpoint, and one gunner spoke the word that held her gun, and the Wing learned it is made of people who can refuse. Betta Arn is under arrest for it. Riley Callahan and Rowan Cade, riders of a mated pair of dragons, are posted north to the strait forts as the Marshal's matched instruments, into a spring campaign where their bond can find each other through ash, storm, and dark, and where everything the bond is worth can be priced by the man who owns their rosters.
Then a captured pit-rider starts selling what he knows. The ambush that killed Rowan's whole flight was bought, and its price was a dragon taken alive. And the Marshal, who cannot roster this spring, has found the one weapon that needs no roster at all: he reopens the inquiry.
The Widow's War is Book 2 of The Widow Dragon, an explicit dragon rider romantasy of war, bonds, and the cost of a spoken verdict.
