Description
The Fall is a novella set in the world of The Bound and The Broken series. It takes place 400 years before the events of Of Blood and Fire.
The city of Ilnaen is on fire. Dragons fill the skies. Traitors fill the streets.
Across millennia, The Order have stood as the guardians of the mortal realm. But four hundred years before Calen Bryer picked up a sword, a red moon rose over the continent of Epheria and the world changed forever.
There are those who believe The Order had lost its way. That it is corrupt, indulgent, and deceitful. That it has abandoned the oaths sworn so long ago.
In the city of Ilnaen, brothers and sisters turn upon each other, dragons war in fire and fury, and gods reach their hands into the world.
This is a night that will echo through all time. This is the fall of The Order. This is where it all began.
The Fall is the first novella set in the world of The Bound and The Broken.

About the Author
Ryan Cahill is the award-winning author of the bestselling epic fantasy series, The Bound and The Broken. He does not own enough swords, would sell his left kidney for a dragon egg, and despises mushrooms in all their eldritch forms. There are three things Ryan has always told himself about writing. Write the books you want to read. Write the books that your younger self would be proud of you for reading. Make sure they have dragons. Ryan now resides in Ireland.
