An exiled heir faces a kingdom at war

Ceridwen tal Desmond’s claim to Soldonia’s crown comes amid invasion, political betrayal, and the threat of civil war. The kingdom’s warriors ride magical steeds associated with elemental forces, while Ceridwen herself is bound by an oath of atonement after her twin brother’s death. The description also introduces a novice priest and a reluctant rebel in a conflict involving a hidden power. As the first volume of The Fireborn Epic, the story links a succession struggle with questions of responsibility, loyalty, and whether Ceridwen can protect her people without becoming a danger to them.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Teens and young adults interested in fantasy with magical horses and elemental forces.
  • Readers who enjoy stories centered on an exiled heir, political conflict, and a struggle for a crown.
  • Those seeking the opening installment of a fantasy series.

Book overview

She rides a fireborn, a steed of fire and ash, trained for destruction.

Ceridwen tal Desmond dreams of ruling like her father over the nation of Soldonia, where warriors ride to battle on magical steeds--soaring on storm winds, vanishing in shadow, quaking the earth, and summoning the sea. After a tragic accident claims her twin brother, she is exiled and sworn to atonement by spending her life--or death--for her people.

But when invaders spill onto Soldonia's shores and traitors seize upon the chaos to murder her father, Ceridwen claims the crown to keep the nation from splintering. Combatting overwhelming odds and looming civil war, she begins to wonder if the greatest threat to the kingdom may, in fact, be her.

With fire before her and ash in her wake, how can she hope to unite instead of destroy?

Flames rage and oceans rise in this explosive first installment of The Fireborn Epic as the exiled heir, a novice priest, and a reluctant rebel wage war against a hidden power that threatens to shake the world.
