Traps — Michelle Erickson

Talon was born of a woman without a heart and a man without a soul into a world without a conscience. Now he has to fix it.
Too bad he's in the Sogoian Barracks, where hope of escape is trapped in the jaws of the hounds, the horns of the stone bulls, and the look in his father's eyes.
The Book of Benamii claims there is a traitor among his men. He's determined to find out who it is, and save as many of his men as he can, while they all train for the blood sport known as Cubes.

Safe on the other side of time, Brenna is learning things she never wanted to know about the past, present, and future. The past concerns the fact the Five Creators are not myths and they left a deadly surprise beneath the Phoenix. The present concerns what the Forest Wife does to those who disobey, and the future has no guarantees.
