Of Dragons and Lies: 1

Maelin Corwin has spent her life believing she's a Sine-magicless, ordinary, forgettable. But when a messenger arrives bearing a black envelope marked with the Capital's flame seal, everything she thought she knew burns away. Drafted to the Valkrenn, the fortress where initiates are shaped into weapons-or are broken in that attempt-Maelin enters a world of brutal trials, ruthless politics, and magical prodigies who bend the very elements to the will of the powerful. Sines aren't meant to survive here... but someone wants her inside these walls. Someone who knows the truth in her blood could unravel the very order upon which the Capital depends. Caidrian Varnel is a fellow initiate with unique powers and a secret of his own. Having been tasked by shadowy figures to investigate Maelin, his loyalties are unexpectedly tested by the slow, impossible pull he feels toward her.Of Dragons and Lies ignites on page one and never lets up. Perfect for readers who crave slow-burn tension, dangerous magic, and the kind of found (and fractured) family bonds forged in fire.
