Bøger i Greenwing & Dart serien

Magic is out of fashion. Gambling never is, especially not with both Jemis Greenwing and a dragon in the neighbourhood.

Magic is out of fashion. Gambling is merely illegal. Neither law nor common sense has ever stopped anyone in Ragnor Bella from making-or breaking-their fortunes at the table, at the racetrack, and especially at the Dartington Harvest Fair. With Mad Jack Greenwing's only son Jemis finally back from university, this year's betting is bidding fair to be the stuff of legend. Jemis assumes the speculative glances are for his inherited notoriety (and, perhaps, his adventurous first weekend back in town), and is determined to do nothing more than a little light wagering at the Fair. Perhaps one footrace. The odds on his placing are remarkably high-but the real bets are whether he makes it to the starting line at all. Lost heirs. Botanizing dukes. Riddling dragons. High Gothic melodrama. And all that's just to get his name in the race. Book Two of Greenwing & Dart, fantasies of manners-and mischief.

Magic is out of fashion. Outlaws make their own. Jemis Greenwing has seen his father's reputation vindicated, been acknowledged as Viscount St-Noire from his mother's side, slain a dragon, and not incidentally been given a raise. After a chaotic first month back in Ragnor Bella, he's finally feeling confident that he can make it to the Winterturn Assizes and the reading of his stepfather's will without falling headlong into any more disaster. Then he's arrested on suspicion of murder. By magic. Of one of the greatest folk heroes in history. Trained to be a politically radical gentleman-of-leisure, Jemis thought he was doing fairly well as a bookstore clerk. That, of course, is before he ends up on the run in the Arguty Forest confronting highwaymen, illegal distillers, the odd relation, and the Wild Saint-not to mention all the secrets the supposedly least interesting town in the continent can hold. Book Three of Greenwing & Dart, fantasies of manners-and mischief.

Magic is out of fashion.>The journey home from Orio City was supposed to be straightforward. Avoid being captured by brigands or agents of the criminal gangs; try not to cause any further spiritual or magical shocks; and make it over the mountains before winter closes in. A sudden blizzard drives Jemis and his friends to seek refuge in an eccentric country gentleman's even more eccentric house. They only want to stay out the storm without revealing all their secrets: but the other guests have secrets of their own, and Mr. Dart's ability to hear the inanimate has some unforeseeable consequences ... Blizzards. Unicorns. Ciphers. Noblesse oblige. A budding romance. And that's before the murder.>.Book Five of Greenwing & Dart, fantasies of manners--and mischief.
