The Monster of Karth has risen once more. Quin Tern has met his fate, and his council has born the price of crossing Raz i'Syul Arro. Now, as the cruel walls of Azbar fade into the winter storms at his back, Raz rides north, seeking to take the High Priest Talo Brahnt up on an offer he never should have refused. The path Raz has chosen, though, is a bloody one, and before long he and his new companions find themselves pitted against hardships they can neither anticipate nor ignore. As man and snow and beast alike rise up to block their path, it seems almost as though the North itself has woken to wage war against the Monster.
And yet, Raz's greatest challenge still looms ahead. Far to the north, like a plague beneath the trees, Gûlraht Baoill, Kayle of the savage mountain tribes, leads his armies further east with each passing day. He has set his hungry gaze upon the reaches of Cyurgi' Di, the High Citadel, and desires nothing more that to see it razed from the face of the world, offering it and its blasphemous "false-prophets" up as sacrifice to his Stone Gods. Syrah Brahnt, the High Priest's adopted daughter and protégé, has found him out, discovering his plan to lay siege to her home, cutting her and the rest of the Laorin off from the world. As it is, though, there is little and less that she can do, and when the first of the Kayle's generals reaches the base of the mountain pass, Syrah is left with only one option. In the end, she will have to face the wrath of the tribes herself...
Little does she know that the Monster is coming, riding hard to lend her his blades.
The series
In a world where might makes right and mercy is a weakness few can afford, The Wings of War soars into the brutal heart of survival, vengeance, and reluctant heroism. From its first bloodstained pages, the series thrusts readers into the unforgiving life of Raz i'Syul, a dragonborn slave turned reluctant legend—hunted, feared, and forged in fire.
Read full series description
But this isn’t a story about triumph handed down by fate. It’s one where every inch of freedom is earned, clawed from the hands of those who would see power chained and burned. With a voice that blends grit with startling vulnerability, the series strips fantasy down to its rawest edge, delivering pulse-pounding battles, deeply personal stakes, and a protagonist whose rage is only matched by his aching desire for something more than war.
What sets this saga apart isn't just the visceral action or its sweeping, ash-covered landscapes. It’s the emotional gravity—the slow unraveling of a soul shaped by cruelty, yet still capable of hope. Themes of identity, honor, and the cost of revenge echo through every chapter, wrapped in a world where monsters wear both scales and crowns.
Dark, unrelenting, and deeply human beneath its scales and steel, The Wings of War doesn’t offer easy answers. It offers a journey—violent, transformative, and impossible to forget.
