Born in fire. Tempered in blood.

Epheria is a land divided by war and mistrust. The High Lords of the South squabble and fight, only kept in check by the Dragonguard, traitors of a time long past, who serve the empire of the North. In the remote villages of southern Epheria, still reeling from the tragic loss of his brother, Calen Bryer prepares for _The Proving_—a test of courage and skill that not all survive.

But when three strangers arrive in the village of Milltown, with a secret they are willing to die for, Calen’s world is ripped from under him and he is thrust headfirst into a war that has been raging for centuries.

There is no prophecy. His coming was not foretold.

He bleeds like any man, and bleed he will.

[Poll:\\
\\
What should we read in July?\\
\\
It’s time to vote on our July book! For some reason, picking three books to vote on was really hard 🫣 After lots of deliberation, these are the options I came up with! I’ve heard great things about these from reviewers I trust, so I’m sure that we’ll love any of them.\\
\\
**_The Unicorn Hunters_ by Katherine Arden**\\
\\
In a desperate gamble to save her throne, a young monarch conceals a secret marriage in the shadows of an enchanted forest—and unknowingly alters the fate of her world. In this rich and epic novel, the author turns the real history of a remarkable woman into an unforgettable tale of mystery, enchantment, and the price of power.\\
\\
**_Of Blood and Fire_ by Ryan Cahill**\\
\\
Born in fire. Tempered in blood.\\
\\
Epheria is a land divided by war and mistrust. The High Lords of the south squabble and fight, only kept in check by the Dragonguard, traitors of a time long past, who serve the empire of the North.\\
\\
In the remote villages of southern Epheria, still reeling from the tragic loss of his brother, Calen Bryer prepares for The Proving—a test of courage and skill that not all survive. But when three strangers arrive in the village of Milltown, with a secret they are willing to die for, Calen’s world is ripped from under him and he is thrust headfirst into a war that has been raging for centuries. There is no prophecy. His coming was not foretold. He bleeds like any man, and bleed he will.\\
\\
**_Theft of Swords_ by Michael J. Sullivan**\\
\\
Royce Melborn, a skilled thief, and his mercenary partner, Hadrian Blackwater, make a profitable living carrying out dangerous assignments for conspiring nobles-until they are hired to pilfer a famed sword. What appears to be just a simple job finds them framed for the murder of the king and trapped in a conspiracy that uncovers a plot far greater than the mere overthrow of a tiny kingdom. Can a self-serving thief and an idealistic swordsman survive long enough to unravel the first part of an ancient mystery that has toppled kings and destroyed empires?\\

[Hey gang! Some exciting things coming up.\\
\\
We were lucky enough to interview both Ryan Cahill and Papa Gwynne during their event in London, which will be posted on the channel this afternoon!\\
\\
We also have an interview posting later this week with Christopher Buehlman celebrating his re-release of Between Two Fires. He's a genius and the opportunity to pick his brain was brilliant.\\
\\
We also batch recorded a handful of videos, like 10 Books To Get You Out Of A Reading Slump, and Will has headed back to Durham. His dissertation is due in March so the channel will be mostly Ed on his lonesome for a little while.\\
\\
Booksworn Bookclub chat about Trie Grit will be scheduled soon, and our Booksworn Options for March will be posted during this week!\\
