In a kingdom where fire is outlawed and its magic brutally suppressed, Kael Ashryn secretly nurtures a forbidden flame, a living ember that burns with the memory of his lost mother. For nine years, he's hidden his bloodfire, a dangerous legacy in a world lit only by cold glowstone. But when a mysterious ex-Warden tracks him down, revealing that his mother's execution was a lie and her blood is being used to shackle a sleeping dragon, Kael is thrust into a perilous quest. He must choose: remain hidden in the shadows, or ignite a rebellion that could awaken ancient powers and expose the Crown's darkest secrets. Can one boy's hidden fire truly challenge an empire built on lies, or will his quest to find his mother burn him to ashes?
