Margaret Weis' Testament of the Dragon
by David Baldwin
New York Times bestselling author Margaret Weis weaves a wondrous tale of dragons, sorcery, and the human spirit in this uniquely magical, fully-illustrated fantasy triumph.They are banished to the Nether Realm for their unholy allegiance and for the sorcery they possess. They have pledged their fealty to the fantastical creatures others have feared and reviled across the ages. They are the disciples of the Dragon, men who honor their liege the Dragon and herald its triumph in exchange for wealth and eternal youth.But the Disciples greatest struggle comes not from the outside, but from traitors within their own ranks who have turned against the wondrous strength and power of the Dragon--chief among them Justinian, the tormented Earl of Sterling. This is the struggle of the ages, the battle between good and evil...the legacy of the dragon.
Dark Heart
by David Baldwin
Justin Sterling is a loner. Formerly Justinian, Lord Sterling, he has lived for centuries in, but not of, our world, serving an ancient entity known only as the Dragon. Justins reward is immortality, but to keep it he must keep killing. He has grown to hate his interminable life, soaked in blood, almost as much as he fears the hideous death that will be his if he refuses to do the Dragons bidding.Sandra McCormick is also a loner. A dedicated Chicago cop, fleeing a twisted past as a victim of abuse, McCormick devotes her scant free time to studying the martial arts--and occasionally cruising the grunge and punk nightclubs for anonymous one-night stands.These two loners are about to meet. Lieutenant McCormick has been assigned a high-profile case. Two men are dead. One a lawyer, one a cop. Both murdered in a mysterious and particularly gruesome manner--their still-beating hearts literally torn from their chests. It was Justin who killed the cop, after another disciple bungled the lawyers death. Now Justin must eliminate the second cop assigned to the case. It little matters that shes a woman. He has done the Dragon's bidding for so long that the slaughter has become routine.But there is something different about this assignment--for both the cop and the disciple. It is a difference they both reject, and then embrace more and more passionately as the closing circle of Destiny draws them together.For these two dedicated killers, these two confirmed loners, each assigned to stalk the other . . . are falling in love.And love is the one vice the Dragon does not allow.
