Scorch the realm. Bring the dawn.

Kingdom of Ash meets The Return of the King in the highly anticipated, realm-shattering conclusion to the Best of #BookTok Shattered Crown trilogy.

A Fractured World
The fragile peace forged in the wake of the Crucible is unraveling. With the rise of an old foe and ancient magic stirring, the scars dividing Arcanis have begun to bleed anew, and the future of the realm hangs by a thread.

A Queen of Shadow
Elyria Lightbreaker has paid a devastating price to save her loved ones. Now, she faces a whole new darkness—and must decide how much more of herself she is willing to give to save a world that has already taken so much.

A Man on the Brink
Rocked by the secrets of his past and the truth behind his power, Cedric Thorne scours the continent in search of the woman he loves. But as enemies emerge from hiding and Elyria is pulled ever farther from reach, he must face the terrifying possibility that saving her may mean becoming something unforgivable. And once his fire is unleashed, there may be no putting it out.

A Final Reckoning
Bound by love but burdened by prophecy, Elyria and Cedric stand at the crossroads of Arcanis’s future. Together, they will confront a truth neither can escape: Not all wounds can be healed, and the price victory demands may not be worth paying.

SHADOW AND SON is the third and final installment in the Shattered Crown trilogy, perfect for fans of high stakes fantasy, character-driven plots, rich world-building, a diverse cast of characters, elemental and shadow magic, and steamy, tension-filled romance—and complex, fulfilling epic romantasy series like Throne of Glass, Fae & Alchemy, Gods & Monsters, Wolves of Ruin, The Kindred’s Curse Saga, Legend of Thezmarr, Crowns of Nyaxia, The War of Lost Hearts, and A Court of Thorns & Roses.

Content note: This is an adult dark fantasy romance that contains strong language, dark themes, and open door spice, and is thus recommended for mature readers.
