The Song of Seven Fires

Perfect for fans of high-heat dark fantasy. Winged women rule, wingless men are trained in the domestic & pleasure arts. But this series isn't for everyone... please read the CW!

The MOTHS series reads like your favorite bingeable show--that delicious 'something's coming' tension, each character peeling back another layer, twisting what you thought you knew into something else entirely.

In the decadent realm of Nuama, winged women rule. Men are trained in the domestic and pleasure arts. Life is peaceful, pleasurable, and safe--until traitors are discovered in the household of the Empress.

But that isn't the only threat facing Nuama--an ancient hellrealm is bleeding into theirs. If the flow of evil cannot be staunched, both worlds will shatter.

As the barrier thins, the fate of reality rests on unlikely shoulders--the Empress and her Evermate, a daughter colliding with her destiny, and a winged man who shouldn't exist.

They'll risk their lives to find the legendary Awakener before it's too late. She is the only being who can stop the collision of worlds--but she hasn't been seen for thousands of annums, and no one knows if she even still exists.

Yet, the deadliest threat might not be the darkness outside… but the forbidden desires within.

Welcome to paradise. Enjoy it while it lasts.

CW--Part One contains what I consider to be the series' most difficult scene. There is a brief, non-depicted instance of childhood SA. The act is NOT shown; rather, the child is comforted by a loving presence who is furious on her behalf. To skip it, turn to page 28 (on most e-readers), to the section after the page break beginning "When you awaken much later..." The story never returns to this topic. In Book One, for a brief time in the hellrealm scene, women are observed in peril--though not as graphic as HBO's Game of Thrones. This series also contains brief, on-page non-con scenes, most involving m/m.

Part One is intense by design--it establishes how terrible the hellrealm is. But the series also contains love, abundance, pleasure, friendship, and found family.
