Tiger Cowers Dragon Falls

Spring should have brought vengeance. Justice. Instead, it brought chains.

The four outcasts who once stood together are scattered across Tianlu, torn apart by distance, betrayal, and Empress Guangling's iron will.

One is shackled by kin and creed, torn between revolt and submission.
One is held behind cold stone, power bound, resolve worn thin.
One is dragged to the empire's heart, stripped of pride and choice.
One is drawn back into darkness, the price of salvation his own undoing.

Though apart, loyalty and love still bind them, tempered by loss and sacrifice. But their magic—unforgiving, always exacting a cost—offers no redemption. Not for their lives. Not for their souls. And if they survive what lies ahead, ruin may be all that remains.

Tiger Cowers, Dragon Falls is the harrowing second chapter of the Four Guardians trilogy, plunging the saga into its darkest depths yet.
