    About this ebook

    Every story has a beginning, middle, and end. For Dawn and Stern and their families, those have already played out in THE PHOENIX RISES and THE PHOENIX BURNS (available together as THE PHOENIX COLLECTION). This group of short stories shows key players - Dawn, Stern, Phoenix, Arianne, Briar, Glee, and Jorra - and some events that happened to them in the time periods between those books.
