The Sky Guard - David Partelow - Bog

As the war for Vallance grows, the seed of a new struggle is sown. Spans away, through the skies, the Five-Points have become a haven for those who have forsaken the ground to find solace in the clouds. Massive towns soar free, bastions to gallant ships of merchants, adventurers, and pirates hungry for fortune and glory. For generations there has been peace, the skies ever protected by an order born from the need for justice. These defenders captain the mightiest of ships, and their name holds sway across the span of the Five-Points.They are simply known as the Sky Guard.However, their days of glory are fading, for the once great defenders are now corrupt. Taxing the towns to the breaking point, the Sky Guard now expect compensation for their protection, less they leave you to the hands of brigands and killers. The skies further darken as the name and scourge of the infamous dread pirate Nikolae Savario forces the hand of travelers, for none are foolhardy enough to chance fate between the Points alone.Except for one.Carilienne Esteele rebels against those who would taint the skies. A former member of the Sky Guard, Captain Esteele uses her frigate, the Equinox, against her former allies, standing fast against greed and villainy. And as her fame swells, so do the ranks of those who wish her put to death. With the Sky Guard at her heels, Captain Esteele soon gains the attention of Captain Savario, a man who craves nothing more than to see her bloodline wiped from existence. And as she tries to stay one step ahead of her enemies, Carlienne must accept the help of a mysterious stranger from another land, one who could prove to be a true blessing or a fatal curse. Against insurmountable odds, the captain and her crew will put their skills, wits, and lives to the test, for their destiny is clear: Live free. Fly free.Or die trying
