Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

**A pact that was never meant to be woken - until she did it herself.**

Ilyenne Corvain thought carrying one ring was burden enough. Now she carries two - and the second speaks with a voice colder than the first, a voice that remembers being whole before it was ever split in two. Somewhere beneath the Ash Mountains, something ancient stirs at the mere fact of her existence, and the soldiers hunting her have stopped being her greatest danger.

To stand a chance against what is waking, Ilyenne must do what no bearer has managed in three hundred years: find the last free dragons and convince them that this fight is theirs too. Every ally she wins costs her something she didn't know she still had to lose - and General Morrow, who is no longer entirely human, is building an army to make sure the cost keeps rising.

Alongside Doran, Kaelen, and Sirah - an exiled noblewoman with her own reasons to want the Ash King's throne to burn - Ilyenne crosses a continent of old grudges and older pacts, gathering allies she never expected: a captain inside Morrow's own ranks willing to risk everything to warn her, a lord who finally chooses a side, three dragons who remember what the crown would rather forget. She discovers a power in herself that can shatter what should be unbreakable - and a fire beneath the mountains that answers when she reaches for it.

The throne of ash is waiting. It will not wait much longer.

The Sleeping Fire is Book 2 in The Throne of Ash, an epic fantasy trilogy for readers who love grounded magic systems, a slow-burn thread of connection beneath the larger stakes, and a heroine who'd rather fix things with her own two hands than be anyone's chosen one - until she no longer has a choice.

Perfect for fans of Brandon Sanderson's rule-bound magic, Robin Hobb's quietly devastating character work, and Naomi Novik's dragons.
