For centuries, the High Senate of Aethelgard maintained peace across the nine provinces through a brutal secret: the Ward Engine, a monstrous machine fueled by the sacrificed souls of young magic initiates.
Aria Vance carries the extinct lineage of the Time-Weavers. Seeking the truth behind her mother's execution, she steps into the deadly trials of the Vanguard Academy. She expected cruel instructors and vicious competition-she didn't expect to be bound to Astraea, a legendary silver dragon of immense ancient power.
Enter Kaelen-a vengeful rebel carrying the lethal mark of the Shadow-Blade. Driven by hatred for the Senate that murdered his brother, his single goal is to tear the empire down brick by brick. Bitter enemies thrown together by destiny, Aria and Kaelen must form an uneasy alliance to survive the academy's brutal culls.
As the Senate prepares their final sacrifice, Aria and Kaelen must unlock the true potential of their ancient magic. But in a world where magic is stolen and trust is fatal, fighting for freedom means burning the crown to ashes.
The Shattered Crown is an action-packed, slow-burn dark fantasy romance featuring a time-bending heroine, a morally grey hero, dragon bonding, and high-stakes rebellion. Perfect for fans of Fourth Wing and From Blood and Ash.
