Flame Treader

Fate made her woman. Now she must make the ultimate sacrifice.

Sho feels the king's happiness, yet she can never truly trust the Healer - or forgive him. All she can do is remain vigilant and try to believe in the man the king loves.




Threat looms, ever darker, ever nearer. For the common people, staying alive is a stronger incentive than old loyalties - many show open allegiance to the Sturgar enemy now. In a war without battles, the weakest are vulnerable. The Sturgar believe total victory is theirs for the taking and plan to bring their nation out of the ice-wastes. Soon, the softlings will kneel before their true masters as God intended.

Flame Treader is the third book in the Crystal Bound Series. Continue DJ Bowman-Smith's fantasy epic to find out who lives and who dies.
