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 Aird Lasair and betrayed by her husband-whom she grew to trust and '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.

Even though Aemyra has a fierce dragon and a large army of elemental wielders called Duileach standing behind her, she has lost what's most important to her-her fire magic. Haunted by her love for her enemy, and unsure if she is even 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 kingdom. 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?

Reviews for A Queen Crowned in Flames

A magnificent conclusion to McBride's epic, feminist fantasy. A story gorgeous, violent, chaotic, in which 'all is fair in love and war' is taken to new and literal extremes. Aemyra's growth drives the narrative as she learns the human cost of war and what it truly means to rule. McBride deftly weaves political machinations, romance, and truly epic battles on dragon back; this book is a full sensory experience, addictive and action-packed. * Brigitte Knightley, New York Times bestselling author of The Irresistible Urge to Fall for your Enemy * 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! After Fiorean's betrayal, I was rooting for Aemyra as she rose from the ashes and became a true queen. A Queen Crowned in Flames is an epic and satisfying conclusion! * Demi Winters, author of The Road of Bones and Kingdom of Claw *
