Leonie never expected her quiet life as a nurse in London to end with her being abducted by aliens and sold at an intergalactic auction. But when a masked figure shatters the frenzy with a single word and claims her as his own, everything changes. She’s taken aboard his ship, given luxurious quarters—and watched. Touched only with care, but owned completely. He speaks in a strange, lyrical tongue. He never removes his mask. And yet, his presence wraps around her like gravity. Leonie doesn’t know who—or what—he truly is. But one thing is certain: he’s not just powerful. He’s ...

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.
In Ruins, Her Flame Persists.
