“...plunges deep into our most tangled selves: the pride, the frailty, that unyielding stubbornness we just can’t let go. Within this world it’s all chaos, mercy, revenge and regret, blending and burning together. Prophecies here don’t murmur in Goodwyn's work. They thunder down, unrelenting. Love unravels at the instant war erupts. This isn’t a tale where heroes emerge untouched. Pain and loss mould the characters, gods’ riddles shape them, and dragons keep their secrets close. However, through each difficult situation, the story challenges us to seek peace, sometimes forcing us to walk unabashedly through the fire. Where lands are divided, and the spirits are reluctant to give in, The Treacherous Fire draws us in by its amazing talent, making our hearts smoulder. This book deserves nothing but praise.” –Filipa Roque, Fantasy Wordsmith
