Series: The Sunsurge Quartet

Summer is gone, and the world is turning to ice.

The Rondian Empress Lyra has lost her husband, her army is defeated and the deadly Masked Cabal have seized the Holy City. Her allies have abandoned her and her empire is spiralling into chaos - and her only weapon is a forbidden magic she dare not use. She can't survive alone - but who can she still trust?

The Eastern conqueror Sultan Rashid is victorious on the battlefield, but now he faces an enemy more deadly than Rondian knights: the winter. Unless he captures a major city to shelter his huge armies, his plans to overthrow the West face ruin in the snow. But standing between his men and safety is the remnants of a defeated army led by a general who knows all about fighting for survival.

There are no easy options left. Lyra and her fellow dwymancers must master their deadly magic, whatever the cost. Even those who believe themselves to be fighting for good must grasp the reins of power with cold-hearted determination, and use even the most terrible weapon, if they are to stop the world from falling apart... for ever.

Reviews for Hearts of Ice (#3 Sunsurge Quartet)

Increasingly addictive . . . Adult fantasy lovers who enjoy historical fiction and intricate political plots will love this book . . . epic - A Bohemian Mind at Work Promises to recall epic fantasy's finest - Tor.com on the Moontide Quartet Represents modern epic fantasy at its best - Fantasy Book Critic on the Moontide Quartet Empress of the Fall is a sprawling epic fantasy of grandiose proportions . . . with a hearty taste of blood and gore, and plenty of vicious politics - Angela Oliver, author of Fellowship of the Ringtails I continue to be impressed by the way Hair takes some very familiar, almost trite, ideas and spins them in a new way. Epic fantasy is not dying, my friends, it is just moving in new directions - Fantasy Review Barn Vivid, dynamic characters and terrific world building . . . Readers of epic fantasy should definitely check out this series - Bibliosanctum on the Moontide Quartet The Moontide Quartet is perhaps the most understated fantasy series currently being written.
