What if the cost of freedom is the very thing that threatens to destroy who you thought you were?

Nadine’s daring escape from the Northern Kingdom did little to calm her fears.

When she dropped Lady Christine’s dagger in the hidden dragon tunnels, she left a dangerous clue that provoked King Radolf to carve out a serious and potentially deadly change to his plan for world domination. He is not afraid to use the vilest of methods to lure in innocents to be part of his plans to retrieve what he has lost.

Now Nadine must prepare for a battle she never intended to be part of. One that could not only destroy the peace between humans and dragons, but also her dreams for her own future.

With strong world building this epic fantasy will also delight readers of historical fantasy books, as it builds the politics, intrigue and religious beliefs of the medieval period through this young adult clean read.

The Fire Within the Storm, Book 2 of the Chronicles of Nadine series is an action packed, drama-filled epic medieval fantasy that challenges what it costs to confront your own fears and claim a higher purpose. Readers will have to confront what they believe to be true on social issues of the time. They will face dragons, kings, and queens in a time when dark forces will stop at nothing to gain power.

The stakes are high, and Nadine and her tribe must draw on their inner courage and sense of honour like never before. And this battle will test their beliefs in ways that they could not imagine.

This Christian fantasy and adventure is a series of well fleshed out characters with the complexity of Game of Thrones, and where danger and deception lurk on every side.

In a race against time, will Nadine conquer her inner demons to rise against the power that threatens to destroy the hope of mankind.

A Worthy Successor To Book

The Fire Within the Storm is the second book in this YA Christian-themed fantasy. It’s a clean read (though there is some violence, so I’d call it PG not G), and it’s rather like Game of Thrones in its densely woven plotting. One has to read carefully to not get lost in all the shifting machinations.

Many characters get their own viewpoint chapters: the good Lady Christine, the duplicitous Beatrice, and the morally dubious Nabal and King Radolf among them. Yet the story continues to follow Nadine, a courageous young woman. The story picks up right where Book 1 left off - Nadine’s made her daring escape from the Northern Kingdom… but in the process lost something that will give King Radolf a new opportunity to dominate the world!

The Christian element is woven subtly into the plot, and the heroes/heroines lead by example, as they should. That said, I can’t help but feel that one of the main themes is stated outright quite beautifully in the book:

★★★★★

I loved getting to know the characters better and how they are all growing and changing. Each having their own battles to prepare for. We see things from different perspectives. I always love when authors do this. I always like to hear how all the characters feel and what they are thinking. An exciting book filled with lots of action. Waiting for the next book to see what happens next.
