In a world ruled by dragons, gods, and broken crowns, a chaotic crew of outcasts stumbles into destiny they never asked for.
There's Ryn, a smooth-talking bard who sings better than he fights (barely). Lyra, a lightning mage with a temper to match her magic. Kael, a haunted assassin running from a bloodstained past. Darian, a cursed prince trying to escape his crown. And Fang, a sarcastic talking wolf who's somehow the most mature of the group.
Together, they call themselves The Iron Howl - broke, reckless, and always in trouble. But when a mysterious cult called The Ember Veil begins summoning dragons across the land, the crew finds themselves at the heart of a war between fire and fate.
Through chaos, betrayal, and too many bar fights, they'll discover the truth about the flames rising in the North - and about each other.

The Crown of Ash
Kaelen never imagined that a single artifact could change the fate of the world. When he discovers the Ember Crown, a powerful relic of fire and temptation, he is thrust into a battle not just for survival, but for his very soul. The crown grants unimaginable power-but every burst of flame comes with a cost. Its whispers tempt him toward domination, its energy tests his restraint, and its hunger threatens to consume everything he holds dear. Joined by a band of warriors, mages, and scouts-including the fierce Lira, the wise Fenric, the radiant healer Mira, and the cunning twins, Ryn and Elara-Kaelen must face Smoke, a shadowy enemy determined to seize the crown for his own dark ambitions, and the Black Hunter, a relentless predator stalking the battlefield. From the scorched plains to the heart of enemy fortresses, Kaelen's journey is one of fire, strategy, and moral choices. Every battle, every short breath, every flicker of flame tests his mastery, courage, and resolve. Will he succumb to the crown's seductive power-or rise above it to protect those he loves? In a world where fire can destroy or illuminate, the choice is his. The crown is his. And the ashes will tell his story. My first book (The Shadows Follow Me) will continue, as I have just been working on a Fantasy book.Complete
