Daughter of the Flame
Book One of the Crown of Smoke Trilogy Years ago, a forbidden spell blanketed the land in green mist, stealing memories and rewriting loyalties. Now, a false king sits on the throne, and those who remember are hunted like ghosts. Seventeen-year-old Corrihn has lived a quiet life on the edge of the forest, her past buried like the journals hidden beneath her cottage floor. But when a forbidden memory rises and soldiers come in the night, Corrihn is swept into a world she was never meant to survive. Imprisoned within castle walls, she learns to serve, to hide, and to endure. Yet whispers stir in the shadows, of a king long forgotten, of a green mist that wiped clean the minds of men, and of a flame that still burns in those who remember. With help from unlikely allies, a shapeshifter with ancient ties, a servant with secrets, and a stablehand, Corrihn escapes the castle, only to find herself at the heart of a rebellion she never asked to lead. But the mist is watching. And as the heir to a fire the world thought extinguished, Corrihn must decide: will she run from the past or ignite it? Daughter of the Flame is a sweeping tale of memory, magic, and the girl who dared to remember.
