Old friends. New Allies. Their fates forever entwined.

Guided by the Ancestors, Natalia and Athgar journey to an inhospitable land where danger lurks behind the guise of friendship. With a dire need to find shelter, they have no choice but to settle in and hope for the best.

It doesn't take long for them to realize something is not right. Athgar, having travelled back to his roots, soon discovers they are rotting from within. And Natalia, one of the most powerful mages on the Continent, finds herself unable to cast even the simplest of spells.

All the while, the Orcs of the Red Hand, running from certain death, desperately seek safety. Kargen, torn away from those he has sworn to protect, must gamble the future of his tribe on a desperate bid for their survival.

When old enemies resurface to endanger them all, two ancient races must come together as one or be annihilated, lost forever to the annals of history.

Descend into a land rife with magic, battles, and intrigue as Paul J Bennett's The Frozen Flame series continues in his latest installment, Flames!

Brace yourself for a wild ride when you start reading Flames!
