Seven Crowns

Seven crowns. One broken kingdom. One queen will decide what remains.When the throne of Vaeloria falls in blood and fire, Princess Elara becomes the last surviving heir of a ruined royal house. Hated by the people, hunted by enemies, and bound to an ancient iron crown that whispers for blood, she must choose what kind of ruler she will become.But the Iron Crown is only the beginning.Across the kingdom, six other crowns are awakening — crowns of bone, gold, thorn, smoke, glass, star, and salt — each feeding on a different human weakness. Greed, grief, lies, memory, prophecy, and vengeance threaten to tear Vaeloria apart before it can ever heal.With rebels, soldiers, traitors, and unlikely allies at her side, Elara must break the crowns before they break the kingdom. But every victory costs her more of herself, and the greatest danger may not be the monsters outside the walls — but the power growing inside her own mind.The Seven Crowns is a dark fantasy novel of power, sacrifice, rebellion, ancient magic, and one queen's fight to rule without becoming a tyrant.
