Synopsis:
"Darrow would have lived in peace, but his enemies brought him war. The
Gold overlords demanded his obedience, hanged his wife, and enslaved his
people. But Darrow is determined to fight back. Risking everything to
transform himself and breach Gold society, Darrow has battled to survive
the cutthroat rivalries that breed Society’s mightiest warriors,
climbed the ranks, and waited patiently to unleash the revolution that
will tear the hierarchy apart from within.
Finally, the time has come.
But devotion to honor and hunger for vengeance run deep on both sides. Darrow and his comrades-in-arms face powerful enemies without scruple or mercy. Among them are some Darrow once considered friends. To win, Darrow will need to inspire those shackled in darkness to break their chains, unmake the world their cruel masters have built, and claim a destiny too long denied—and too glorious to surrender."

Synopsis:
"In 1960s Oxford, Professor Henry Lytten is attempting to write a fantasy
novel that forgoes the magic of his predecessors, J. R. R. Tolkien and
C. S. Lewis. He finds an unlikely confidante in his quick-witted,
inquisitive young neighbor Rosie. One day, while chasing Lytten’s cat,
Rosie encounters a doorway in his cellar. She steps through and finds
herself in an idyllic, pastoral land where Storytellers are revered
above all others. There she meets a young man who is about to embark on a
quest of his own—and may be the one chance Rosie has of
returning home. These breathtaking adventures ultimately intertwine with
the story of an eccentric psychomathematician whose breakthrough
discovery will affect all of these different lives and worlds."

"Maniye's father is the Wolf clan's chieftain, but she's an outcast. Her mother was queen of the Tiger and these tribes have been enemies for generations. Maniye also hides a deadly secret. All can shift into their clan's animal form, but Maniye can take on tiger and wolf shapes. She refuses to disown half her soul, so escapes, rescuing a prisoner of the Wolf clan in the process. The killer Broken Axe is set on their trail, to drag them back for retribution.
Maniye's father plots to rule the north and controlling his daughter is crucial to his schemes. However, other tribes also prepare for strife. Strangers from the far south appear too, seeking allies in their own conflict. It's a season for omens as priests foresee danger, and a darkness falling across the land. Some say a great war is coming, overshadowing even Wolf ambitions. A time of testing and broken laws is near, but what spark will set the world ablaze?"
