4-6Ashtown Burials series.
In this fast-paced sequel to The Dragon's Tooth, siblings Cyrus and Antigone want to become Explorers in the Order of Brendan, but treaties between the Order and transmortals collapse. Well-grounded prose and complex, quirky characters give heft to a story predicated on the mythic heroism of explorers like Smith, Livingstone, and Boone.
