Blade of Embers: The Phoenix Province #2

By J.R. Castle

Book Two of the Alburnium Trilogy

Hope is harder to hold when everything you love has already been lost.

Sterlyn of Raven House believes Rillion has passed into Everlasting-and with her, the life he once dreamed of. Determined to begin anew, he turns away from his family and province to pursue the calling of a Prior. But before he can claim a new future, Sterlyn must pass three trials that lead him deep into hostile forests ruled by warring clans of dwarves, centaurs, and other creatures who despise human intruders.

Failure could cost him everything.

Rillion, still alive but broken in spirit, endures life under the control of her cruel stepfamily as her beloved province crumbles into corruption and despair. When a mind-clouding potion finally loosens its hold, Rillion is forced to face the truth of what she has lost-and what may still be saved.

With the help of an unlikely ally, Juniper the okbold, Rillion must decide whether she will surrender to hopelessness...or rise and fight for the people who once believed in her.

Blade of Embers continues the YA faith-based fantasy trilogy of Alburnium, where courage is tested, faith is refined, and even the smallest spark can reignite a fallen kingdom.
