Empyrean (Forthcoming)
By Hansel Eldor
In a city of fire and ice, betrayal burns brightest. A dark, gender-flipped court drama from a major new talent.
At the frozen peak of the world lies Svalverfi—a city kept alive by a magical fire and ruled by a queen whose bloodline carries the power to control it. But when Crown Princess Ragnhild is born without that power, the throne’s future—and the city’s survival—fall into dangerous uncertainty.
As political pressure mounts and the queen falls into a coma, Ragnhild is forced to take the throne, hiding her secret and struggling to hold the court together. Her brother Heidrek, a powerless prince with forbidden magic, and her betrothed Ismund, a gentle outsider caught in the storm, become unlikely allies—until love between them ignites a secret that could shatter everything.
In a world where power is inherited by fire and sealed with blood, the price of survival may be too high. Loyalties will break. Rituals will demand sacrifice. And at the heart of it all, one girl must decide how far she’s willing to go to be queen.
