About The Shattered Throne, Book One by C.D. Creveling
A blade forged in ash. A city rotting in betrayal. A curse that hungers for blood.
Dain Callisar survives on instinct and steel in the festering port of Karisport, a decaying relic of a shattered empire. When a desperate courier thrusts a scorched parchment into his hands—its strange runes shimmering with dark power—Dain’s world ignites. Hunted by the relentless Imperial Sentinels and shadowed by a mysterious runesmith from Vyrnheim’s salt-soaked shores, he’s thrust into a deadly game he never chose to play. The missive points to the Varak Wastes, a desolate graveyard of ancient ruins, where a relic of unimaginable power lies buried—a shard that could awaken a darkness long dormant.
As Karisport’s alleys erupt in blood and treachery, Dain crosses the black river to Thornmere, a rebel stronghold ruled by the fierce Lady Corwyn. Her woods teem with thorns and secrets, and her council demands answers Dain doesn’t have. But the parchment’s curse clings to him, its visions of ash and ruin seeping into his bones. With every kill, every betrayal, something stirs within—an Ashborne hunger that threatens to consume him. The empire’s warlords, a shadowy merchant prince, and a tide of shadow-beasts all converge, drawn by the same prize. To survive, Dain must face the ruins of his past and the abyss of what he’s becoming—before the throne’s shattered pieces claim him first.
The Shattered Throne: Book One plunges you into a dark fantasy epic of survival, sacrifice, and a world teetering on the edge of oblivion. The saga begins here—will you dare to follow?
