Sometimes the worst person is the best man for the job.

Across realms where magic and machine collide, Ashe is a fortune hunter without peer. His fire magic is renowned. He burns through anything and anyone between him and the treasures he seeks. Ashe's competence is matched only by his cruelty.

No one would mistake him for a hero.

Despite his flaws, he is a dark world's best hope against the rise of a darker empire. One commanded by his sadistic former lover. Ashe wants nothing to do with the escalating war. But their long-lost daughter has other ideas.

She needs Ashe's help against another dire threat.

It blows on the wind amidst the armed bedlam. A sentient disease lost by the warrior sect that raised his child.

It wants new victims.

And Ashe's ex will gladly supply them for its allegiance.

Will the man with the hottest fire stop the world from burning? Not unless he can strive to be better. Not unless he can repent.

Perfect for fans of The Wheel of Time and The Avengers. Epic-scale fantasy with kitchen-sink scope, multi-world stakes, and an ensemble of characters playing for keeps.

Unleash the fire.
