The Legion of Flame
Empires clash and evil stakes its claim in the second in a new series from the New York Times bestselling author of the Raven’s Shadow Trilogy.
In the vast Ironship Trading Syndicate, nothing is more valuable than the blood of drakes. Harvested from captive creatures, it can be distilled into elixirs that bestow abilities on the rare men and women known as the Blood-blessed. Soon, they will be the only thing standing between civilization and chaos.
A fearsome power has arisen — a drake so mighty that the world will tremble before it. Rogue Blood-blessed Claydon Torcreek, Syndicate agent Lizanne Letheridge, and ironship captain Corrick Hilemore embark upon perilous quests to chase down clues that offer faint hopes of salvation. But their actions unwittingly ignite the fires of revolution and set in motion a chain of events that may bring down the whole empire — and the world with it.

Anthony Ryan
Anthony Ryan’s name has become synonymous with epic fantasy that doesn’t just create worlds, but breathes life into them. Known for his intricate storytelling and deeply complex characters, Ryan’s works resonate with readers who crave more than just escapism—they want a story that challenges their perceptions and stays with them long after the final page.
Born in 1970 in Scotland, Ryan’s path to becoming a full-time writer was far from conventional. He worked in the British Civil Service for many years, but his passion for storytelling was never far from the surface. It wasn’t until 2011, when he self-published his debut novel Blood Song, that Ryan’s writing career truly began to take off. The book quickly found an enthusiastic audience, and its success led to a three-book deal with Penguin Books just a year later, marking the beginning of his rise in the fantasy world.
