Dragon's Inferno. The Dragonriders of Fiorenza, #2

Neva only wants to keep her family safe - but that hope vanishes when her best friend, Fia, plummets out of the sky, gravely wounded, on dragonback."Let the dragonrider die!" her mama pleads. That would be the sure way to ensure that the army stops harassing them - but Neva can't turn her back on her friend. Never mind that her family is holding Fia's father captive, and Neva is forced to use her magic in this hateful work - work that is bringing war closer, every day.
But when a magical spell goes wrong, Neva's now in danger. Worse, a new leader has emerged - one who wants to hasten the war - one who has his cold eye on Neva and Fia both. Fia and Neva are not on the best of terms. Both of them have reason to be wary of each other as Neva tries to hasten her healing. But there has been too much between their warring families all these years. But when her father's execution date is moved up, Fia flees - only to lose the only person who could help her rescue him.
Fia has two weeks to save him. Neva has two weeks to stop her. Set in an alternate medieval Italy with dragons and magic, ASSASSIN'S BLADE is for fans of the dragon books of Ursula K. Le Guin and Anne McCaffery. If you like tough heroines, wisecracks, adventure, and magic, you'll love taking flight in DRAGON'S INFERNO.
