The Waking Fire

Серия: "The Draconis Memoria"

The new star of British fantasy returns with The Waking Fire, a thrilling new epic fantasy of exploration and adventure, spies and assassins, explosive magic and the battle for empire. For decades the lands of the Protectorate have been defended by the Blood-blessed - men and women able to consume the potent blood of wild drakes. Elite spies and assassins, their loyalty has established the Protectorate's position as the greatest power in the known world. Yet now a crisis looms. The drake bloodlines are weakening, and war with the Corvantine Empire seems inevitable. The Protectorate's only hope of survival lies with the myth of a legendary drake, whose powerful blood might just turn the tide of the war - if it even exists. The task of hunting down the elusive beast falls to Claydon Torcreek, a petty thief and unregistered Blood-blessed. He's handled many valuable things in his time (most of them illegal) but nothing as priceless as his nation's future.

Ryan Anthony

Ryan Anthony is a trumpet player, most notable for his performances as a member of Canadian Brass, has had his performances used in many broadcasts of major U.S. television networks.

History

He was born in 1970 in San Diego, California. He studied violin as a child until he finally began trumpet at age seven. His first instrument was his grandfather's old cornet and he performed "Amazing Grace" that Sunday at church.

Over the next ten years, Ryan would grow in his ability to a prodigious level. He won the General Motors/Seventeen magazine concerto competition at the age of 16. At age seventeen, he caught the attention of Canadian Brass players in a local workshop. He played right alongside Fred Mills on "Handful of Keys" by Fats Waller. Chuck Dallenbach, founder of the Canadian Brass, never forgot this moment as he recounts on the [http://www.canbrass.com/bios/pastmembers.html#ryan CB website] .

Ryan's solo in "Farewell" was also heard on the theme song to NBC's "Must See TV" in 1998.

After his education at the Cleveland Institute of Music (CIM), he was awarded the trumpet professorship at Oberlin Conservatory, where he stayed until 2000.

More recent activities

In 2000, Ryan was offered an opportunity to play in the Canadian Brass. He set off on tour with them later that year. He played in the Brass for three years. During this time, he was awarded the alumni achievement award from the CIM. He then left the group to pursue a solo career and to spend more time with his family. He still performs with them occasionally, however, along with performances in other venues across the country. In 2005, he released his first official solo CD. Ryan presently serves as Acting Principal Trumpet for the Dallas Symphony Orchestra.
