Win a set of Margaret Weis and Robert Krammes' The Dragon Brigade


Thanks to the generosity of the folks at Tor Books, I have a copy of the second volume in The Dragon Brigade series by Margaret Weis and Robert Krammes for you to win! And since the first installment was released by another publisher, Weis has been kind enough to supply a copy so the winner will get his or her hands on a whole set! The prizepack includes:

- Shadow Raiders (Canada, USA, Europe)
- Storm Riders (Canada, USA, Europe)

Here's the blurb for the first volume:

The known world floats upon the Breath of God, a thick gas similar to Earth's oceans, with land masses accessible by airship. The largest of these land masses are ruled by the rival empires of Freya and Rosia. Magic is intrinsic to the functioning of these societies, and is even incorporated into their technological devices. But now a crucial scientific discovery has occurred that could destroy the balance of power--and change the empires forever.

Here's the blurb for the second volume:

In a world where magic is intrinsic to the fabric of everyday life, two kingdoms, centuries-long enemies, have long sought a powerful magical weapon that will win them lasting dominance. But neither realm is ready when they are both attacked by the Bottom-Dwellers, a bitter people whose own land was destroyed, and who now live only to take vengeance on those they blame for a wretched life in the storm-tossed abyss they inhabit. Using contramagic strengthened by blood sacrifice to attack the world above, they threaten to bring down whole cities, or even the island kingdoms themselves. Freya and Rosia are forced to put aside their age-old conflict to defend themselves, or risk losing everything.

As the Bottom-Dwellers’ contramagic eats away at the magic of the dragons that helps protect the world above, a former dragon-riding hero gathers a ragtag group to form a new dragon brigade, the one desperate hope of the two kingdoms to defeat the fiends who threaten their world. As the effects of contramagic bring the world ever closer to disaster, the new dragon brigade fight the vengeful adversary. Their high-flying heroics will be to no avail, though, unless they can somehow uncover forbidden knowledge, long hidden by the Church, without which they will never be able to prevent the world's destruction.

Margaret Weis and Robert Krammes deliver yet another exciting dragon brigade adventure in Storm Riders.

Nice! Weis introduced me to the realms of fantasy years ago, and still keeps me coming back. :)

This is so awesome, thank you for this opportunity. I haven't been able to afford to get any books in a long while and I don't live near a library. While I read lots online, I miss the feel of a real book & refuse to torrent books.

Thank you so much for the chance!
