What if the child of a tyrant was born to break the chains of kingship?
In a world consumed by dark magic and ruled by fire-forged bloodlines, a prophecy foretells the rise of a child who will end the age of cruelty. Born of royal blood but raised in hiding, Kaelen is the flamebearer who never asked to be chosen. Hunted by the empire his grandfather built, trained in secret by a humble farmer, and haunted by dreams of destiny, Kaelen must walk through war, betrayal, and spirit-bound fire to fulfill a fate that could free or destroy a kingdom.
Armed with a golden flaming sword and a heart that chooses mercy, Kaelen will face warlords, cursed generals, and the seduction of power itself. But to heal a broken world, he must first survive it-and become the king who refuses the throne.
The Healer King: From Ashes Rises the Healer-King is a sweeping epic of prophecy, rebellion, and redemption-a fantasy saga of love, war, and the fierce choice to lead not through fear. but through flame and forgiveness.

Autor*in
Claire Smith is a rising voice in science fiction, celebrated for her emotionally rich narratives and atmospheric worldbuilding. With a talent for weaving together speculative science, psychological depth, and suspense, she has carved out a unique space in genre fiction.
Claire's work often explores the blurred lines between humanity and technology, consciousness and identity, love and survival. Her breakout novel, Death Calling, blends horror and hard sci-fi into a haunting story about grief, alien intelligence, and the cost of bravery in a collapsing world.
She draws inspiration from real-world science, abandoned cities, cosmic horror, and the quiet resilience of human emotion. When she's not writing, Claire can be found sketching alien tech in her notebook, binge-watching cerebral sci-fi shows, or wandering through misty woods with her dog.
Claire is passionate about storytelling that lingers-stories that ask deep questions, unsettle gently, and stay with you long after the last page is turned.
