Dara Ruminor is a serious young
duelist in the mountaintop kingdom of Vertigon, a land of dramatic cliffs and
misty peaks where mysterious Fire magic runs through the stones like blood. The
secluded kingdom has been peaceful for a hundred years. Swords are used for
sport, and successful athletes live like kings as long as the crowds love them.
Eighteen-year-old Dara needs to
find a wealthy patron in order to duel professionally and avoid a lifetime
working in her parents’ Fire Lantern shop. Her efforts are disrupted when her
coach asks her to train with Prince Siv, an infuriating—if handsome—young man
who refuses to take the sport as seriously as she does. But the prince’s life
may be in danger, and soon Dara will discover that Vertigon isn’t as peaceful
as she thought.
As threats emerge from the
shadows, Dara will have to raise her sword to protect Siv—if he doesn’t
irritate her so much that she decides to run him through herself.
From the author of the
Seabound Chronicles comes a new fantasy series about sword fighting,
cur-dragons, molten Fire magic, and one young woman’s effort to prove herself.
