From the Ashes: Book One of the In Blood and Fire Series

Kristina Gruell

An orphaned princess, a mad goddess, and a world on the precipice of war.

Duty to King and Country. That was the defining principal of Lenathaina Morthan’s life. Her father had died for King and Country on the day she was born, killed by the Magi sworn to the Living Goddess, Hestia.

Her mother had died that day too, in childbirth, after feeling the death of her husband through the magical link that bound them together.

Now Lena must do her duty to King and County, and marry a man she has never met to seal an alliance with a neighboring kingdom against Hestia and her Magi. Lena’s uncle, the king, is dying. Her cousin, a sadist that is obsessed with her will be left to rule the land and people she loves.

Can she leave her political stronghold, leave the court that she was raised in? And when she arrives in her new home, will she find a welcoming family or just another set of enemies?

Author Kristina Gruell debuts with a dark, high-stakes political fantasy, where every new face hides a potential threat. Pick up From the Ashes, and discover the shadow games that will determine the fate of Redolan.
