MASTER THE INFERNO
OR BE CONSUMED

Lindon has less than a year left until the fight of his life. To resolve a lethal blood feud between rival clans, he’s been forced into a high-profile duel against a vastly superior opponent. But no one believes such a low-ranking sacred artist can survive.

Under the unorthodox mentorship of Eithan Arelius, Lindon and his fellow student Yerin travel to the heart of the Blackflame Empire. There, he can prepare in secret for his impossible task. Lindon must risk bonding with a legendary creature – one who could grant him incredible destructive power. Yet this Path of Black Flame could also ravage his mind and consume his body. Success gives him a chance, but failure means certain death.

In the sacred arts, only those who risk all can travel far.

Blackflame is the astonishing third adventure in the Cradle series from Will Wight, following Soulsmith. The tale continues in book four, Skysworn.
