Her forge-born flame could win a war, if the courts don’t kill her first.
Kaelara Veylin has already lost the man she loved. Prince Dain lies in an unmarked grave in the Shadowplane, and the rebellion starves. To raise an army, she crosses three hostile thrones, pleading for help she can’t afford. The price: survive a gauntlet of lethal trials, poisoned banquets, demands by the gods, while nobles wager on how quickly she’ll burn out.
Her lone spark of joy is Evríc Valen, the reckless mage whose grin hides scars as deep as her own. Every stolen touch proves grief can kindle something fierce and new.
Yet each time Kaelara calls her fire, the Shadowplane answers. A chained god whispers through widening cracks in reality, promising power, obsession, perhaps resurrection… if she lets the darkness inside.
Failure means execution. Victory may cost her heart or her soul.
Perfect for fans of Maas, Yarros, and Broadbent: expect knife-edge court intrigue, found-family grit, and slow-burn spice that finally catches.

The story opens with a heart-wrenching twist that leaves both Kaelara and the reader reeling. As the last Flamebearer, Kaelara faces daunting odds—but this time, she’s not alone. The world-building expands beautifully, revealing deeper lore and introducing a broader cast of characters. While the pacing occasionally shifts between leisurely and fast-paced, it mostly maintains a compelling rhythm. The action scenes are especially vivid, and Alexandris’ lyrical prose creates a lush, immersive experience—though at times, it leans a touch heavy on description.
Kaelara’s internal struggles and moments of self-doubt are more prominent in this installment. Though some may long for the unshakable strength she displayed in book one, this vulnerability adds emotional complexity and realism to her character arc. There are a few slower scenes and moments of repetition that lessen the overall impact, but they don’t overshadow the author’s evident growth and talent.
The ending is both tantalizing and provocative, setting the stage for what promises to be a powerful sequel—and yes, I already have it lined up.
In short, The Shattered Crown marks an evolution in Alexandris’ storytelling. A compelling continuation for fans of romantic fantasy—and a strong incentive for newcomers to begin their journey into Aeryndor.
