The One That Got Away
"You have got to know it's coming near the point of no return for your clan at this stage. Will you let your agents- or even dare-I-say, your Clannarch- throw the lives of you and all your shipmates away? Will you let them throw their own lives away?"
The Stone Unfurled is a long, flat world surrounded by walls of golden ice, covered by the Ten-Thousand Seas, which are speckled with many islands whose inhabitants must make their way in a beautiful but harsh world. In the sequel to First Last Chance, Arlo Haradin-Harkon returns for another adventure on the Ten-Thousand Seas. Taking place a year after the harrowing events that started with the conquest of Lost Pip's Rock, and ended with the Battle for Redbrook Bay, Arlo has had some time to recover and build both confidence and competence as a bonded agent of House Haradin. This time, his work as a clan agent brings him to the mysterious trade hub of Zatali; a town at the foot of the golden ice wall that encircles the Stone Unfurled. There, he will get wrapped up in a scheme that involves a surprise reunion with someone from his not-so-distant past, an enigmatic artifact, corrupt clanners, and perhaps even the very will of the gods themselves. Hop aboard again for the second trial of Arlo's steady ascent and meet... The One That Got Away
As always, Stone Unfurled stories contain adventure, romance, humor, cool boats, a bit of sword play, strong women, violence, fatalism, and lots (and lots) of salt water.
Trigger warning: This book contains a lot of graphic violence and at one point they say the title out loud.
