Those words have been the guiding force behind Queen Monaβs every move since she was a little girlβthe idea that all her actions and desires were, first and foremost, decided based on what was best for Lumen Lake. It had kept her alive after the Alcoran invasion, it had driven her to retake her country, and now it is the steely resolve she needs to finally confront the despotic Seventh King, Celeno.
But when her diplomatic mission finds herself on the run through the swamps of Cyprienβaccompanied by the unlikeliest group of companionsβMona discovers that while she is her country, she is also someone who has been sheltered by principles and bound by past mistakes. Now she must struggle to reshape her view of the world and face intimate new truthsβnot only for the good of her country, but for herself, as well.
A desperate journey to secure peace, and an even greater journey to discover herself, Ashes to Fire is the captivating and adventurous follow-up to Emily B. Martinβs Woodwalkerβonce more with cover art by the author herself!
