  Thran Reborn
The Atlantean Isle House Thran of Adylonis was exiled to the mainland after taking sides against another human house when it attacked the Telmet people.
Although the Tialsar play the Houses off against one another for their own advantage, House Suum is a military House that eventually drops all pretense and moves against House Thran as Andalarn seems on the brink of realizing his dream.
Thran Reborn is that rare type of story that you can read now, put it away for a while, pull it out later, and read it again just for fun.

  From Russia, with food (printable version)
Thran, Ohanian and Sheremetyeva are members of a small but growing expat community composed of ethnic Russians and people from other regions of the former Soviet Union.
When Thran came to Reno 10 years ago as a graduate student in music, she said she knew only eight other Russians, “all students.” When Ohanian arrived in 1996, that number had increased to about 30, she said, enough to fill her living room or field several squads of piroshki makers.
Thran got to work making her family’s version of zraza, confections similar to Scotch eggs in which hard-boiled eggs are wrapped in ground beef and fried.

Thran also was impressed by the on-field performance he witnessed Saturday.
Thran mans the right tackle position for his team on offense, as well as defensive tackle, and he professes a proficiency as a drive blocker.
Thran's senior season could extend into December, which in turn could push his official visits into January, so this is a tale that could continue for a few more months.

 Thran - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Genius of Halcyon, a man named Glacian, was hurt in the raid on the mana rig, and contracted a disease which none of the city's healers were able to cure; their arcane healing magic only worsened the disease.
The Thran began to suffer from this disease known as Phthisis, which an ex-Thran healer named Yawgmoth determined was caused by the powerstones which the city ran on.
The disease changed the way the Thran Empire worked; it spread like the Plague and Yawgmoth had the only known cure--a serum consisting of metal components in solution which blocked the flow of mana (natural energy) through the body.

 Amazon.com: The Thran (Magic, The Gathering): Books: J. Robert King   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
The Thran is the Magic the Gathering book that starts out everything in the storyline behind the card sets (not counting the out-of-print Magic the Gathering novels published by Harper Prism, which have nothing to do with the trading card game story at all).
The Thran also has a character named Rebbec (she's on the cover of the book) and she becomes Gaea.
Like the earlier book, THE THRAN follows the card game's storyline--how odd it must be for an author to have to follow a plot so thoroughly worked out by others, without the possibility of revision--and it, too, manages to be much more than an advertisement for the game.

 Encyclopedia Phyrexianna: Yawgmoth of Dominaria
By attempting to elevate themselves to the levels of deities, the Thran were sorely unaware that dark figures would use this newfound power for their own purposes.
The Thran voted for Yawgmoth to be given this request, but made it painfully aware to the healer that should results not occur, his banishment would be reinstated.
Also, some Thran were growing taller, stronger, and healthier by bathing in the glistening oil that was found in Phyrexia’s fifth sphere.
