Long ago, there lived the Drakon, or dragon. They ruled the land, shifting from man to smoke then beast. Then came the Other, wrought of mud. As the Others grew, the Drakon diminishes. And as of 18th century England, there are almost none.

Amalia is one of the last, and supposedly the least powerful. Having failed to complete the ritual needed to gain her powers, Lia is unable to turn to smoke or dragon. But what her family doesn't know is that Lia has her own sort of power, she can dream of the future. And the future she sees isn't a pretty one.

All Zane knows is that Lia's family has hired him to find the Draumr, the diamond that has the power to enslave the drakon. He doesn't know that Lia's visions foretell them to be lovers, and her family to be their enemy. At Lia's insistence, the two pair up to find the one thing that can truly destroy the drakon.

Excerpts

In the realm of the drákon, as in the realm of human men, there are hunters, and there are prey.

We, of course, excel at hunting. It is who we are: that hard carving wind, that swift and fatal talon through a hammering heart. We are the fog draped in circles around the forest pines; we are the golden eye of the sun, shining terrible and bright upon the earth and its lesser beings. We hunt because we breathe. Animal or mineral, diamonds or blood, if we desire it deeply enough, it will be ours.

This is nature. These are our Gifts, and we are entitled to them as surely as a lion is entitled to his roar, or a mouse to her hoard of autumn seed.
