"Guardians of the Galaxy meets Lord of the Rings" - Amazon Reader Review

A simple escort job.

A stolen dwarf.

A prophecy written in fire.

Anshul has spent his life being feared for his horns, crimson skin, and gift for flame. Traveling with an owlkin wizard, a half-orc barbarian, and a halfling thief isn't exactly safe—but it's the closest thing he's ever had to a family.

When a wealthy cleric offers the party a fortune to escort a dwarven smith to the struggling town of Summerhost, the job seems too good to refuse.

It is.

Before they arrive, a bog hag brands Anshul with a prophecy that speaks of an ancient evil, a mysterious Heart, and a fire destined to either save the world—or consume it.

Now hunted by monsters, pursued by the rogue mage known as the Cinder Prophet, and racing to rescue a kidnapped dwarf, Anshul and his companions must decide whether they're merely adventurers...

...or the last hope the world has left.

But Anshul fears the prophecy isn't warning him about the darkness.

It's warning everyone else about him.

Sins of the Cinder Prophet is the first novel in The Summerhost Saga, an epic fantasy adventure featuring unforgettable companions, dangerous magic, impossible prophecies, found family, monster battles, sharp banter, and world-ending stakes.

Perfect for fans of Kings of the Wyld, The Blacktongue Thief, and classic party-based fantasy adventures.
