Summary
Haytham's attention is divided between Connor and his own bleeding shoulder. The Templar is still wary of taking his eyes off his son for too long, but his look is that of exasperation, not fear. As if he walked into a wild animal’s lair having already accepted the risks, but unable to resist the temptation of trying to tame it.

Summary
Fiarac “Fia” Basdlan is shackled to the empire he once fought against. Gifted in magic, including the oft-feared and highly coveted skills that make him one of the last known Blood Knights in the Aurinon Kingdom, he spends his days doing the bidding of the emperor, skirting the ire of the empress, and training the crown prince, all under a collar even his skills cannot break.
When a dragon egg en route to the capital city goes missing, Fia is sent out to locate not only the egg but the thief behind it, whom the emperor wants brought to a swift and quiet justice. It’s this mission that puts Fia on a collision course with Elios “Eli” Vimmati, the self-proclaimed master thief of the continent and someone with a keen eye for the worth of an object. Jewels, precious metals, artworks of the highest craft, or a living soul. Everything has a price as far as Eli is concerned, and plenty who are willing to pay it.
As instructed, Fia plays the faithful hunting dog, steadfast and unstoppable, but on one fateful night, Eli makes Fia a proposition: help him secure the dragon egg, and he will secure Fia’s freedom. It’s a choice that may very well unravel all the good the empire has laid claim to.

Summary
"Aiden couldn’t remember the last time that “new” didn’t mean pain. A new test, a new experiment, a new cut into his eye to coax regrowth, a new potion or mutagen forced through his teeth.
Today, however, there was something new."
Or the story of Aiden of the School of the Cat escaping captivity in the wake of Jad Karadin's betrayal. He's taken to Kaer Morhen, the new capitol of the Wolf Warlord's hard-won kingdom, and the home of the people that should relish seeing him dead the most.

Summary
Instead, one thing sticks with him: Haytham traded Achilles his life for his disgrace, with a musket ball between them as a betting chip. He’d not given Achilles the option to choose—he had made the decision for them both. Haytham has always been a man who abides by his decisions.
Ratonhnhaké:ton will not let the end of his father’s life come at his own hand. He refuses.
This, at least, he will not do.

Summary
Leon is a slave soldier content to keep keep his head down and keep breathing, until he is unexpectedly singled out by his masters. High fantasy with dark themes, a plot and very slow building.
***
⚠️ The “dark fantasy” tag is there because I mean it. Most characters aren’t great people, and some of them are awful. It’s a story about war, survival and love in an imperfect world with good people doing bad things and bad people occassionally doing good ones. That being said, there’s a HFN ⚠️Series
