The truths they feared have risen from the ashes-and the bond between them may be the only thing strong enough to survive the fire.
The world Axel Ashersson believed in has shattered. After rescuing Petra from the High King of Åldras and being sent to retrieve Lady Idalia from the clutches of the Sidans, he's left choking on the bitter truth that the war he's sold his soul for was built on nothing but lies. And finally confessing the depth of his feelings for Petra-praise the Allfather-has only driven her farther from him. Now they are trapped aboard the same bloody ship, bound for Sida on a mission to steal back a woman who wants nothing to do with her brutal husband.
Petra Mallorysdottir would rather let a draugr bite her again than go with Axel and the crew to Sida. The lies she used to shield herself have been ripped away, leaving her raw, exposed, and burning with magic she can't control. The way Axel continues to watch her certainly isn't helping. Their kiss and the confessions she'd unburied from the ashes of her home have ruined everything and there's no hope of ever returning to the life she'd so carefully built.
But the fragile truths uncovered in Åldras have not ended the conflict-they've only exposed deeper fractures. If Axel and Petra can't navigate the widening chasm between them, reclaim Lady Idalia, and keep the kingdoms from plunging back into war, everything they have left to lose will be taken from them.
Allison Anderson returns with a sweeping epic romantasy where love is forged in battle, truth is a weapon, and destiny is written in fire. Son of Steel delivers emotional stakes, crackling magic, and a breathtaking world inspired by the raw power of Norse myth.
