THESE THREADS ARE SOAKED IN BLOOD.
The Astaris Empire is fracturing, its realm flogged by war and fanaticism. Empress Seline and her Gold Council vie to maintain control, but what is control for a nation built on blood and lies?
In the east, the storied Rhaavi people cling to their independence, but as the ruinous First Legion of the Empire arrives at their walls, hope is decimated. Even so, Yuei, the dragonrider, and Rizu, the shadow guardian, will lay down their lives to protect their home. And Kirana, High Chieftainess of the Rhaavi, vows to lead her people through . . . no matter the cost.
Elsewhere, the prodigious Hatsun pursues an education at the fabled Great Library of the Awakened. But he quickly learns that curiosity is both a boon and a burden as his studies unveil cataclysmic secrets about the world that could change everything.
This book marks the first chapter of The Tapestry of the Tarnished. Here is a tale spanning the whole of the Ring: A circle of continents rife with war and unrest. A world colored by magics and mythical creatures. A place you will fear, yet not wish to leave.

Author Bio:
Mosha Winter is a budding author living in the beautiful foothills of the Rocky Mountains. He is a writer of fantasy and, naturally, loves dragons.
On the internet Mosha often goes by the pseudonym "MoeWanders," and you can find him on various social networks under this handle where you'll likely see him sharing his artwork and photos (he's also a painter and photographer!) or raving about a new game or series that he loves.
He is happily married to Twitch creator TeaWithMandy and can often be found goofing around in her stream chatroom. Together Mandy and Mosha are the proud parents of two very large and very rowdy dogs, and one rather small but equally rowdy cockatiel.
