A Crown of Ash and Flame

A kingdom broken. Four companions bound by fate. A darkness that refuses to die.Long ago, Valebrook fell to betrayal and fire. King Reynard was slain, his crown lost, and the realm of Eldara fractured beneath the shadow of Malrik's rising power.Years later, four unlikely companions are drawn together: Rayner, the fallen king's son, trained in secret by a weary knight; Cole, a reckless mage whose gifts are as dangerous as they are rare; Quinn, a blacksmith's son with a hammer in his hands and loyalty in his heart; and Tristan, a silent hunter whose eyes miss nothing.Together, they must survive a land scarred by war, hunted by Malrik's legion, and haunted by whispers of an artifact hidden in the ruins of the Old Kingdom, an artifact said to be the only thing that can turn the tide.But the road ahead is more perilous than steel and shadow. Trust will be tested. Bonds will be broken. And the choices they make will decide not only the fate of Eldara, but the kind of men they will become.A sweeping tale of brotherhood, sacrifice, and magic's dangerous cost, this epic fantasy will grip fans of Tolkien, Jordan, and Sanderson, while carving its own mark in the timeless fight between shadow and flame.
