Dashiell Red Clay has spent decades as a soldier, a shadowrunner, a mercenary...above all, a warrior. He's survived Goblinization, the Night of Rage, the passing of Halley's Comet, the Second Matrix Crash, and more skirmishes, gunfights, and battles than almost anyone else alive. He knows more than most that history books are written in blood. It's time for new chapters to be written.

From watching armies gather like storm clouds in Africa to bloodily taking sides in the Aztlan/Amazonian War, from wading into the madness of the Great Dracon Civil War to taking part in a surprise winter invasion against the United Canadian American States itself, Dash has to face greater threats than ever before. In the exciting conclusion to his trilogy, in order to survive, Dash must come to grips with the friends he has lost and the home he left behind, and must learn to wield the secret, hidden, power of his blood—draconic power, and draconic blood—in order to find the balance between metahuman and monster.

History is written in blood, but it's written by people. And now it's Dash's turn, whether he likes it or not.
