The unmissable third book in the Kingmaker Chronicles, an award-winning fantasy series with snappy dialogue, a kick-ass heroine and a warlord who's not quite as ruthless as he seems, set against a world on the brink of battle, full of gods, dragons and endless possibilities.

Description

'A heart-pounding and joyous romantic adventure that swept me away.' Nalini Singh, New York Times bestselling author

Who is Catalia Fisa?

With the help of pivotal figures from her past, Cat begins to understand the root of her exceptional magic, her fated union with Griffin Sinta, and Griffin's role in shaping her destiny.

Only Cat holds the key to unlocking her own power, and that means finally accepting herself, her past, and her future in order to protect her loved ones, confront her murderous mother, and take a final, terrifying step - reuniting all three realms and taking her place as the Queen of Thalyria.

What doesn't kill her will only make her stronger... we hope.

'Absolutely fabulous. I didn't want to put Breath of Fire down. Amanda Bouchet is now on my auto-buy list! I highly recommend her books to my readers and to anyone looking for a great blend of fantasy and romance.'

C.L. Wilson, New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of The Winter King

'This book is utterly breathtaking!' Darynda Jones, New York Times bestselling author of the Charley Davidson series
