In the tempest-ridden Elonian Empire, the high king lies dying, and the fragile peace binding six kingdoms frays. White Haven, the divided capital, festers with corruption: in the south, the highborn revel in opulence, while across the river, the lowborn struggle for survival. Beneath the city, something ancient and deadly stirs. Children vanish, their cries swallowed by shadows. Dark powers awaken, ready to reclaim what blood and time have locked away.
When Collin Bright disappears, his sister Lucy refuses to let him become another lost soul. Joined by Sara, a driven Oath detective, their search draws them into White Haven's hidden vaults, where corruption and forbidden magic seethe. As dark secrets unravel, they discover some forces are best left buried.
Ezra, abandoned with a rare red crystal, clings to the only link to his past. Swept into the highborn's world of ambition and betrayal, he begins to suspect his crystal may hold the key to the empire's future...or its undoing.
While the lowborn fight to survive, the highborn plot for power. Atticus Longford, the rightful heir, faces enemies in the shadows, while Rodrick Bashford, crushed by his father's expectations, forges alliances that could cost him his soul. As fates intertwine, destinies are forged, and loyalties fray, the line between hero and villain blurs.
Forge & Fray is an epic tale of power, sacrifice, and the unrelenting cost of survival, where every choice binds or betrays, tipping an empire on the edge of ruin.
Forge & Fray is perfect for readers who love the intricate world-building of Brandon Sanderson's Stormlight Archive, the political intrigue and morally complex characters of George R.R. Martin's Game of Thrones, and the dark, character-driven storytelling of Joe Abercrombie's The First Law Trilogy. This epic fantasy delivers a slow-burning tale where every choice carries weight and reshapes the fate of kingdoms.
