Balanced Blades Cut Both Ways. Commander Aviry Brooke found this out the hard way as the Starbond's Endstorm breaks at last, his doom swept up by the Veins' most vital hunt. While the skies falter and the fates spiral out of control, Brooke must buckle down and lead men in a feckless, seemingly hopeless war. To know the pathless path is one thing but to tread its unclear, trap-laden course proves something else entirely. Save one truth: the deepest sleep does not take sides. And Evil comes in the cleverest guise of all. As freeborn and demons clash across the Main, as Siphons wreck havoc on Earth, as the wizard, Gjen leads the Vein fellowship on their damned and uncertain Augury Quest, and worlds tear themselves asunder in the fallout, Brooke learns to his despair, the most effective weapon is a poison of the mind. The scale is rigged... and Time is running out. Spectacular settings, magnificent creatures, rousing action and harrowing twists define Balance: Book Three of the Lines of Blood grit-paved saga

Ignore the Bane at your Peril.Legends may birth of truth, but with time and the tampering of primeval lore, falsehoods rear. And yet, through stranger deviations, the retold chronicles rise to the level of myths. Though the darkest road still lies ahead of the Blood Scions, Areth's four paragons draw ever closer to their merger with one another. Each hearkens to the elven's adage that as long as naocci grows, hope remains. But whilst the Endstorm gathers strength and Creation teeters in the balance, an unforeseen aberration metastasizes. A hyperdemon governed by pure chaos has surfaced to usurp the last war between good and evil. It wields an alien power to tip the scales either way. Still on separate paths, the Four Veins of Fire come to realize that matters are not as they first seemed-that their arcane course may serve as the very conduit to unleash Obliteration. Swords will sing, sacrifices will be made, allegiances will be war-forged and tested, as the ancient battle lines are drawn, writ, and woven in blood, filling the pages of the next spellbinding volume in the Lines of Blood Saga: Book Two: Bane.
