Lincoln's Wizard: Dragons of the Confederacy Book 1

by Tracy Hickman, Dan Willis

Overview

Washington has fallen! Legions of 'grays' -- dead soldiers reanimated on the battlefield and pressed back into service of the Southern Cause -- have pushed the lines as far north as the Ohio River. Lincoln has moved the government of the United States to New York City. He needs to stop the juggernaught of the Southern undead 'abominations' or the North will ultimately fall. But Allan Pinkerton, his head of security, has a plan...
The Northern newspapers are heralding Braxton Wright as the Hero of Parkersburg, but the engineer who designed the Northern walking monitors -- Tall Guns -- knows the truth. He had acted more out of panic than heroism and is certain he has gotten his best best friend, physician Lawrence Hancock, killed in the cold waters of the Ohio as a result. What he would like is to be forgotten.
But at Pinkerton's urging, Lincoln personally sends Braxton on a mission aboard Gen. Sherman's airship deep into Southern territory. He will find Hattie Lawton, the woman who is the North's most capable spy, and with her must stop the undead of the South from rising again!

About the Author

International and New York Times Best-selling author Tracy Hickman has been exploring realms of speculative fiction professionally for over 30 years. Born in Salt Lake City, Tracy served as a missionary in Indonesia before returning home to marry his childhood sweetheart. She, in turn introduced him to 'Dungeons & Dragons', and laid the foundation for his career as a professional game designer and, later, fantasy novelist.

Tracy has over 60 books in print and is published in most languages around the world. He still enjoys board games, biographies and history but his favorite occupation is spending time with his wife, children and grandchildren.

Born in Washington DC and raised just east of there in Maryland, Dan grew up among the most practiced of storytellers, politicians. Despite that, he decided to become a writer rather than a professional liar or grifter. He moved west to Utah to attend college and studied writing. Like everyone who studies writing, he had to find some way to make money and worked as a mechanic, a customer service rep, a programmer, a web designer, a software tester, and, occasionally, a copy writer.
Eventually, Dan's writing caught they eye of Wizards of the Coast, and he began writing for their DragonLance: The New Adventures series. Most recently, Dan worked with NYT Bestselling author, Tracy Hickman on a new alternate history Civil War series, Dragons of the Confederacy.
