Reborn in Ash: A dark epic fantasy novel (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781068390210)

Magic abandoned humanity millennia ago. Now it returns, bringing ruin to a wanted thief, and her chance for redemption.

When ash fell like snow, everyone it touched grew ill with fever. Most died. Ada Renwick didn't. She endured the ash plague, food shortages, and brutal riots, turning to thievery to keep her jewellery business afloat. But when she draws earth magic from a stolen gem, she doesn't only learn of magic's return. She causes an accident with lethal consequences.

Running from her crime, Ada loses everything. Yet, using magic feels as natural as breathing. She'll do anything to get another magic gem, even join a war she wants no part of. It's not until Ada meets a woman who can wield fire magic that she realises some things are worth fighting for.

But fire burns anything that gets too close.

Reborn in Ash is Gabrielle Steele's debut novel, a standalone dark epic fantasy about a tenacious thief who must navigate the changes brought about by magic's return. The book features found family, elemental magic, and a varied cast with LGBTQ+ and BIPOC characters.
