    About this ebook

    Purple and green billowed as he exhaled.

    Pixie dust. Felix's one vice, helped his knees stop aching and his body remember what it was like to be young.

    But this batch brought rage instead of youth, violence instead of relief.

    Not a good thing to inflict on an old dragon hunter, especially one as not-human as Felix.

    Only question was who'd pay for it: his neighbor Youneda or the dealer.

      Verity pushed back the quilts, rolled off her straw mattress onto the floor, felt for the poker, and stirred the ashes. The embers glowed. She wouldn’t have to go fire-borrowing again. Her chilled hands were clumsy. One glowing bit of wood rolled fro
