Sons of Ash and Flame: Book One of the Heartfire Saga (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798277018620)

Ash keeps turning up where it shouldn't-on David's bedsheets, in the corners of his cheap New York apartment, bitter on his tongue when he wakes from the same burning sky.

David has always been good at surviving: foster homes, bad dreams, the feeling that something huge and nameless is watching him from just beyond the clouds. But when a stranger with dragon-gold eyes drags him and his best friend out of an alley and calls him by a name no one should know, the truth finally cracks open.

David is half human, half dragon-the hidden son of Aevyrn, eldest of the fire-born, and brother to Darian, the commander who rules the First Realm of dragons and molten stone. Between their world, the in-between Second of Fae and gryphons, and the concrete glare of the Third, David is the fulcrum: the living hinge on which all three realms can be healed...or burned clean.

Hunted by zealots who think humanity is a disease, guarded by a disgraced dragon with borrowed god-fire and a knife-tongued Fae who never quite tells the whole truth, David is forced onto leylines, into hidden crossroads, and straight into the heart of an old war. To survive, he has to learn what his power is for-and who he's willing to become.

Sons of Ash and Flame is an urban/epic fantasy blend about found family, scarred gods, and the dangerous mercy of choosing to mend a world instead of conquer it.
