    Summary

    His voice came feverishly, deep with his need for her and she found herself set aflame, desirable yet again. Beautiful. He wanted her, craved her as much as she now did him. But he was coming apart at the seams and the early stages of his exquisite shattering were beginning to reverberate throughout the First Order like an earthquake. His tremors were palpable from where she resided and she felt almost proud that she could bring a man to his knees with hunger for her.

    Summary

    ***Remastered Version of The Reluctant Alchemist's Guide to Thedas, Part 1"***

    A modern-day historian tries to survive Thedas by wit, chance, and the skin of her teeth at the questionable edges of the Inquisition.

    Margo Duvalle likes her quiet academic life just fine. Her research on the history of botany is going well - until she finds an odd manuscript in the local special collections library. What starts as a promising source for a new article leads to a series of unfortunate events that hurl Margo into an unfamiliar world - and into a stranger's body. But a PhD in history doesn't prepare you for surviving in a world on the edge of collapse, especially when the organization that seeks to fix things is itself a sordid mess. As she tries to unravel the mysteries lurking behind young Evelyn Trevelyan's apparent incompetence, Margo is led into a tangled web that weaves multiple worlds together — and what waits in the shadows might be much bigger than whatever strife plagues Thedas.

    Summary


    Having awakened in a different time, place, and reality- the Earthling Andromeda's introduction to the brutal landscape of Ferelden is a quiet and suspicious one.

    With no known language to readily communicate, an arcane resistance that halts all magical intervention, and the forcible implant into a culture so vastly different from her own, Andromeda must accept that her tale on Earth has come to a violently abrupt end.

    However, unknown to Andromeda and those within the ranks of the Andrastian Inquisition, her story lights anew with a cosmically malformed and hungering purpose.

    Pray for planet Thedas.
