Faith of the Phoenix

THE FLAME IS FADING, AND THE NIGHTMARE HAS JUST BEGUN.

Midral is rebuilding. After a devastating attack, the dwarven city stands on a knife’s edge, its defenses crumbling as their god’s holy fire begins to dim. For Ronan Flamestriker, the only human ever blessed with Niradim’s magic, the danger is far more personal.

Haunted by visions of a colossal, armored figure from a forgotten age, Ronan is abducted by the Cult of the Fallen Star and dragged deep into the frozen wastes of the north. His captors don’t just want his life; they want his god. Trapped in the ruins of an ancient forge, Ronan must endure a new trial to create an artifact for a madman—or doom his vulnerable city to destruction.

Back in Midral, Brin Dawnstar refuses to accept the Elders’ decision to abandon Ronan. Defying her orders and risking charges of treason, she strikes an unlikely alliance to hunt down the cult and bring Ronan back. But the path to the north is treacherous, and the secrets waiting in the ruins challenge everything Brin thought she knew about her faith.

Separated by miles of snow and enemies, Ronan and Brin must fight to reunite before the Fallen Star extinguishes the light of Niradim forever.

New heroes will rise, oaths will be tested, and the true history of the dwarves will finally come to light.
