Flamefall

Exiled Callipolan dragonlords on the island of New Pythos are determined to retake their city, and they have destroyed its food supply to do it. Annie, the new Firstrider of Callipolis, leads the Guardians through a war while rationing fuels unrest at home.

Her second in command, Lee, is shaken by a recent killing and must decide whether to stand with Annie or join the radical rebels. On New Pythos, Griff, a lowborn dragonrider bound to his lords, must choose between staying loyal to them and making a dangerous bargain with Annie. Flamefall is the second book in the Aurelian Cycle, following Fireborne.
