Who This Book Is For: This book is for complete beginners to Swift 3. No prior programming experience is necessary! Topics Covered in The Swift Apprentice Playground basics: Learn about the coding environment where you can quickly and easily try out your code as you learn. Numbers and strings: These are the basic kinds of data in any app - learn how to use them in Swift. Making Decisions: Your code doesn't always run straight through - learn how to use conditions and decide what to do. Functions: Group your code together into reusable chunks to run and pass around. Collection Types: Discover the many ways Swift offers to store and organize data into collections. Building Your Own Types: Learn how to model elements in your app using classes, structures and enumerations. Protocols & Protocol-Oriented Programming: Define protocols to make your code more interface-based and compositional. Error Handling: Make your code more robust and flexible by signaling and handling error conditions gracefully. Functional Programming: Learn how to use Swift in a functional style and how this can make your code clearer and easier to reason about.

Valko, adrift in the open sea, ponders his place in the world amid a sense of longing and guilt. He encounters the swordsman Fenrir, who seems to have an uncanny knowledge of Valko. The pair soon become entranced with one another and their desire takes hold. Through terror, war, and each other's wrath they come to understand how important one has become to the other. So too have they found a new land and people to call their own. It is a closely guarded possession in a world torn apart by the wars of men and the encroachment of the Fog. Love and peace are hard won victories, and there are always casualties.
