More DescriptionAs their purpose takes human and dragon bond-pairs across the continent, the troubles they face increase both at home and abroad. At the Dragon Craft Guild, stories told by generations of dragons to reign in unruly hatchlings reveal themselves to be more than mere tales. Like everyone in the guild, Aeron is excited by the news and what it could mean. There is another far to the north, however, who fears its implications.In the desert, recent incidents slow the transition of the former Corpus Order into a guild branch, and Guildmaster Millinith wonders whether they are truly accidents. After a deadly mishap, she sends help to investigate. While most in Bataan-Mok are happy with the transition, they learn of one who will do anything to bring back the Order.In the east, whispers in Stronghold that deride High Lady Hasana have grown more strident. Master Gella investigates and finds hints of a deeper, sinister plot. City-wide riots force her to enlist the help of the Dragon Craft Guild to safeguard Stronghold, which is fortunate, for the entire city and its new defenders will soon be tested.And in a place both far and near, Ulthis, the Bearer of Lightning, learns that even gods must pay for their transgressions. Stripped of powers and much of his memory and trapped on Lethera as a human youth, he is given a deceptively simple task in order to regain his godhood. That undertaking leads him to the Dragon Craft Guild, and joining in their struggles, he discovers just how little he knew of his own creations and of himself.In OF GODS, TREES, AND A SAPLING, sequel to A STORM IN THE DESERT, author Adolfo Garza Jr. takes readers back to the world of Lethera, where magic and a nascent Industrial Revolution are the backdrop for tales about dragons and the brave souls who are their bond-mates, the dragonlinked.Note: Dragonlinked Chronicles is a young adult fantasy series that is lgbt-friendly.
