Everyone expected Violet Sorrengail to die during her first year at Basgiath War College – Violet included. But Threshing was only the first impossible test meant to weed out the weak-willed, the unworthy, and the unlucky. Now the real training begins, and Violet’s already wondering how she’ll get through. It’s not just that it’s grueling and maliciously brutal, or even that it’s designed to stretch the riders’ capacity for pain beyond endurance. It’s the new vice commandant, who’s made it his personal mission to teach Violet exactly how powerless she is – unless she betrays the man she loves.

After nearly eighteen months at Basgiath War College, Violet Sorrengail knows there's no more time for lessons. No more time for uncertainty. Because the battle has truly begun, and with enemies closing in from outside their walls and within their ranks, it’s impossible to know who to trust. Now Violet must journey beyond the failing Aretian wards to seek allies from unfamiliar lands to stand with Navarre. The trip will test every bit of her wit, luck, and strength, but she will do anything to save what she loves—her dragons, her family, her home, and him.

Twenty-year-old Violet Sorrengail was supposed to enter the Scribe Quadrant, living a quiet life among books and history. Now, the commanding general—also known as her tough-as-talons mother—has ordered Violet to join the hundreds of candidates striving to become the elite of Navarre: dragon riders. But when you’re smaller than everyone else and your body is brittle, death is only a heartbeat away...because dragons don’t bond to “fragile” humans. They incinerate them.

By mid-life, many people have already reached the version of success they once imagined. The house. The career. The family. The savings. The independence. But what happens next? How to Be a Successful Ninety-Year-Old is not a book about getting older as much as it is about preparing to live well for as long as life allows. Marguerite Lorenz, a Professional Trustee and Executor, draws from real client experiences to show what successful aging looks like when health, independence, family, money, care, and personal wishes begin to overlap.

Most people do not avoid estate planning because they do not care. They avoid it because it feels uncomfortable, confusing, expensive, emotional, or too far away to matter today. Life does not wait until we feel ready. Luck or Control is a practical and deeply personal guide to understanding estate planning as more than paperwork. Lorenz shows that an estate plan is not just about money, death, taxes, or legal documents. It is about love, dignity, preparation, and making sure the people you care about are not left guessing when you can no longer speak for yourself.

Men are forged, not found. Every man fights his most important battles long before the world ever sees him. Before the success. Before the respect. Before the recognition. The real arena is the mind. Modern culture tells men to soften. To shrink. To doubt their instincts. Strength is mislabeled as aggression. Discipline is treated like a flaw. Responsibility is framed as a burden.
