Synopsis

Game of Thrones meets Graceling in this thrilling fantasy filled with shocking twists and heart-pounding action, the highly anticipated sequel to Snow Like Ashes. This action-packed series is perfect for fans of An Ember in the Ashes and A Court of Thorns and Roses.

It's been three months since the Winterians were freed and Spring's king, Angra, disappeared—thanks largely to the help of Cordell.

Meira just wants her people to be safe. When Cordellan debt forces the Winterians to dig their mines for payment, they unearth something powerful and possibly dangerous: Primoria's lost chasm of magic. Theron sees this find as an opportunity—with this much magic, the world can finally stand against threats like Angra. But Meira fears the danger the chasm poses—the last time the world had access to so much magic, it spawned the Decay. So when the king of Cordell orders the two on a mission across the kingdoms of Primoria to discover the chasm's secrets, Meira plans on using the trip to garner support to keep the chasm shut and Winter safe—even if it means clashing with Theron. But can she do so without endangering the people she loves?

Mather just wants to be free. The horrors inflicted on the Winterians hang fresh and raw in Jannuari—leaving Winter vulnerable to Cordell's growing oppression. When Meira leaves to search for allies, he decides to take Winter's security into his own hands. Can he rebuild his broken Kingdom and protect them from new threats?

As the web of power and deception is woven tighter, Theron fights for magic, Mather fights for freedom—and Meira starts to wonder if she should be fighting not just for Winter but for the world.

But in a game of shifting alliances and simmering romance, who can she trust?

• An Angsty Fantasy Romance: Meira finds herself torn between Theron, a prince who wants to save the world with magic, and Mather, the childhood friend who wants to save their kingdom through rebellion.
• A Warrior Queen: Trained as a soldier but crowned a queen, Meira must navigate treacherous royal courts where a single mistake could cost her people everything.
• Epic World-Building: Journey across the kingdoms of Primoria, from the icy lands of Winter to the opulent courts of the Rhythm kingdoms, on a mission to uncover ancient secrets.
• A High-Stakes Quest: The discovery of a lost chasm of magic could save the world or destroy it, forcing Meira into a desperate race to control its power before her enemies can.
