Forged in Fire

By: Burke, Mikael

Some fires destroy. Some forge.

Miraleth was a child when the vanguard burned her city and murdered her family. Now she is the last of the Drakmoor line, the hunted heir, hidden behind a blacksmith's soot and a borrowed name, running from a crown that wants her dead. All she carries is a royal sword she cannot wield and an old soldier named Henrik who has sworn to keep her alive.

But a hunted girl can only run so far. As the net tightens through the alleys of Millhaven and the marshes beyond, Miraleth must decide whether to keep hiding, or take up the sword, the crown, and the terrible weight of what she was born to be.

Forged in Fire opens The Ironhold Chronicles: a sweeping saga of a hidden heir, a stolen throne, and the price of becoming who you were born to be. High fantasy in the Gaelic-Scots highland tradition, for readers of Robin Hobb, John Gwynne, and Anthony Ryan.

Book One of The Ironhold Chronicles.
