A contested throne amid an approaching assault

The second book in The Burning series brings Tau and Queen Tsiora into a crisis on two fronts: an impending attack on the capital by the people of Xidda and a struggle over who rules the Omehi. Their plan depends on Tau buying Tsiora time to gather forces, while the capital itself is held by her sister, presented as the “true” queen. Reclaiming the city and restoring Tsiora’s rule are tied to the Omehi’s chances of surviving the wider threat. The setup links personal and political conflict with military danger, making the fight for the throne part of a larger question of collective survival.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers seeking action-and-adventure fantasy with a political succession conflict.
  • Readers interested in a series installment built around military strategy and the survival of a people.
  • Readers who want to continue The Burning series after The Rage of Dragons.

Book overview

In this thrilling epic fantasy, an ousted queen must join forces with a young warrior in order to reclaim her throne and save her people.

"Relentlessly gripping, brilliant." --James Islington

Tau and his Queen, desperate to delay the impending attack on the capital by the indigenous people of Xidda, craft a dangerous plan. If Tau succeeds, the Queen will have the time she needs to assemble her forces and launch an all out assault on her own capital city, where her sister is being propped up as the 'true' Queen of the Omehi.

If the city can be taken, if Tsiora can reclaim her throne, and if she can reunite her people then the Omehi have a chance to survive the onslaught.

"This gritty series set in a South African-inspired fantasy world is an intense reading experience, and the second book is just as phenomenal as the first." --BuzzFeed News

"The Fires of Vengeance is epic fantasy at its finest." --Winter Is Coming
