About this listen

The rightful queen and her fire-breathing dragon must fight against corruption and overcome the betrayal of the man she loved in the searing conclusion to the Celtic-inspired fantasy romance duology that began with A Fate Forged in Fire.

Aemyra Daercathian is a queen on the run. Having failed to take Àird Lasair and been betrayed by her husband—whom she had grown to trust and was beginning to fall for during her time in captivity—Aemyra is forced to retreat with a raging desire for revenge. But before she can settle the score and fulfill a sacred promise to kill Fiorean, her forces must rest and replenish their strength.

No one can know the truth.

Although Aemyra has a fierce dragon and a large army of elemental wielders called Dùileach standing behind her, she has lost what’s most important—her fire magic. Haunted by her love for her enemy and unsure if she is Goddess-blessed anymore, Aemyra vows to do right by her people, even if that means she must make a new kind of alliance, one that could mean winning back her territory—at a cost to her heart.

From the ashes, Aemyra must emerge a new kind of queen, but will she be the dawn for her people or the fire that burns everything to the ground?

Critic Reviews

“A magnificent conclusion to McBride’s epic, feminist fantasy. McBride deftly weaves political machinations, romance, and truly epic dragon battles; this book is a full sensory experience, addictive and action-packed. More, please!”New York Times bestselling author Brigitte Knightley

“A scorching, triumphant finale that is equal parts epic and unforgettable. A masterful exploration of fury, love, and the fire it takes to rise as a queen. I will devour anything Hazel McBride writes.”—Logan Karlie, New York Times bestselling author of Dream by the Shadows

“This scorching sequel digs its teeth in from page one and never lets go. The dragons? Epic. The men? Kneeling before their fiery queen, where they belong. A Queen Crowned in Flames solidifies McBride as a fresh, pulse-pounding voice in romantic fantasy, and I can’t wait to see where her world takes us next.”—S. A. Maclean, bestselling author of Voidwalker

“I could read a hundred novels set in the world Hazel McBride has created—steeped in Celtic mythology, it's so vivid it feels like a character itself! An epic and satisfying conclusion!”—Demi Winters, author of Dawn of the North

“A stunning conclusion to Aemyra’s story. The perfect mix of female rage, revolution and a love strong enough to burn down a world—and remake it anew.”—Holly Race, author of Six Wild Crowns

“A sizzling, cinematic finale that raises all of the stakes from book one that is sure to leave hearts racing (for more reasons than one!).”—Rosie Hewlett, author of Medea
