The Fireborne Blade
The Fireborne Blade | Charlotte Bond
4 posts | 4 read | 1 to read
Kill the dragon. Find the blade. Reclaim your honor. Its that, or end up like countless knights before her, as a puddle of gore and molten armor. Maddileh is a knight. There arent many women in her line of work, and it often feels like the sneering and contempt from her peers is harder to stomach than the actual dragon slaying. But shes a knight, and made of sterner stuff. A minor infraction forces her to redeem her honor in the most dramatic way possible, she must retrieve the fabled Fireborne Blade from its keeper, legendary dragon the White Lady, or die trying. If history tells us anything, it's that die trying is where to wager your coin. Maddilehs tale contains a rich history of dragons, ill-fated knights, scheming squires, and sapphic love, with deceptions and double-crosses that will keep you guessing right up to its dramatic conclusion. Ultimately, The Fireborne Blade is about the roles we refuse to accept, and of the place we make for ourselves in the world. At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.

Yesterday after work I braved the heat to take a bookish walk in the park! 🌿☀️ I just started reading this one, and it's great so far - I just wish it was longer!

If you want to get lost in a labyrinthine dragon‘s lair full of phantoms, dark magic, treachery, and worse—The Fireborne Blade is yours for the wielding. While I predict many readers will lament the low page count‘s limitations when it comes to character depth and foreshadowing, this clever, gory novella shines in bringing the bloody and claustrophobic reality of a dragon‘s den to life, with badass, sapphic characters doing the daredeviling.

Received to review!

Lots of fascinating detail here, and it comes together really well. I was left feeling pretty ambivalent about the ending, though I think that's 100% as intended. Vengeance isn't clean and it's probably not good to pretend that it is.
