Book II of The Song of Naga Teot. As fierce as the storms that punish the desert, Naga Teot, last of his clan, has debts to pay back in blood. First for the birthright stolen from him, second for his slaughtered family and third for Caladrunan, Liege Lord of Tan, who by friendship and Great Oath he is sworn to protect. The debt is owed to the Osa, whose strange new weapon can melt rock with its flame and burn whole cities to the ground. They stole his childhood and now his sword shall call down the blood storm upon them. Cover art by John Jude Palencar.
