The Ember Crown — Book Four
The Nine Lamps
By Robert Hethcoat · Published under HORIZIN Apps Publishers
A lonely tower. A dragon’s song. Nine lights against the dark.
At the edge of the western sea, nine blue lamps shine from a lonely tower. Beyond them, the Hollow King holds a great bronze dragon in chains. Her son knows the beginning of the song that might reach her. He cannot yet sing its end.
As an army gathers on the headland, Corran Dunmore and his companions must defend the Tower and discover what its fading lights still remember. A ferryman, a young dragon, and a handful of unlikely defenders stand between a hungry king and the people he would destroy.
Every night, the king sings. Every night, the young dragon answers. And the Tower cannot hold forever.
Manuscript: 555 pages, 42 chapters. A young-adult fantasy adventure.
