The Iron Ghost
Beware the dawning of a new mage...

But in a place twisted and haunted by ancient magic, with the most infamous mage of them all, Joah Demonsworn, making a reappearance, our heroes soon find themselves threatened by enemies on all sides, old and new. And in the frozen mountains, the stones are walking...
Join the reckless adventurers of THE COPPER PROMISE as they face even darker challenges than they could have imagined.

Jen Williams
Jen Williams crafts fantasy worlds that shimmer with danger and charm, where the echoes of forgotten legends meet sharp wit and complex characters. Growing up in southeast London, she was drawn to dark folklore and fairy tales that whispered of shadowy magic and fierce survival. This early fascination shaped her voice—one that blends the raw edges of adventure with moments of sly humor and emotional depth.
Her debut, The Copper Cat Trilogy, introduced readers to a world where swordplay and sorcery collide with a refreshing irreverence, centered on Wydrin, a mercenary who breaks the mold of typical fantasy heroes. But it was with The Winnowing Flame Trilogy that her reputation truly solidified. Beginning with The Ninth Rain, the series weaves together elements of fantasy and sci-fi with a brooding atmosphere and richly layered storytelling that earned critical acclaim, including multiple British Fantasy Awards. Themes of decay and renewal thread through her work, inviting readers to explore worlds on the edge—where ancient powers stir and unlikely heroes rise.
Copper Cat
Copper Cat consists of three primary books, and includes four additional books that complement the series but are not considered mandatory reads. The current recommended reading order for the series is provided below.
