An Ember in the Ashes meets Three Dark Crowns with this lush debut dream novel about a female who disguises herself being a boy to join a secret band of warriors that ride phoenixes into battle.

I actually about Crown of Feathers had a sister, once…

In a world ruled by brutal warrior queens, a grand empire was constructed upon the backs of Phoenix Riders—legendary heroes who soared through the sky on wings of fire—until a war between two sisters ripped everything apart.

I promised her the throne wouldn’t normally come between us.

Sixteen years later, Veronyka is a war orphan who dreams to become a Phoenix Rider from your stories of old. After a shocking betrayal from her controlling sister, Veronyka hits out alone to find the Riders—also if which means disguising herself as a boy to join their ranks.

Nonetheless it is an undeniable fact of lifestyle that one must wipe out or be killed. Guideline or become ruled.

Just like Veronyka finally feels as though she belongs, her sister turns up and reveals a tangled web of lies between them which will transformation everything. And in the meantime, the brand new empire has learned from the Riders’ come back and intends to ruin them forever.

Sometimes the title of queen is given. Sometimes it should be taken.

Crown of Feathers can be an epic dream about love’s incredible capacity to save—or even to destroy. Interspersed throughout is the story of Avalkyra Ashfire, the final Rider queen, who rather see her empire burn off than get into her sister’s hands.
