Forced to redeem her honor by retrieving the fabled Fireborne Blade from its keeper, legendary dragon the White Lady, or die trying, knight Maddileh, with scheming squires, sapphic love, deceptions and double-crosses, is determined to forge her place in the world on her terms. Maddileh is a knight. There aren't 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 she's 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.
