About the Book

In the kingdom of Virelle, only firstborns are granted magic, power, and purpose. The sacred Firstfire chooses heirs through a public ritual, reaffirming the divine right of the elite. Secondborns, by contrast, are silenced-kept alive, but marginalized, ignored, and excluded from inheritance and influence. Lyra Virelle, secondborn daughter of the ruling house, has spent her life observing from the shadows of the Royal Citadel. On the eve of her brother's ceremonial Choosing, Lyra notices something strange: the Queen's flame doesn't flicker with divine judgment-it behaves like chemistry. A flash of copper dust. A glint of illusion. When Lyra investigates further, she uncovers a secret that could upend the kingdom's most sacred tradition: the flames that crown their rulers are faked-and have been for generations. Driven by curiosity and a growing need to reclaim her voice, Lyra follows a mechanical raven into the forgotten tunnels beneath the palace. There, she discovers the Hollow-a secret society of secondborns who have built a thriving underground world where voice is power and magic is sung. Trained by an elder named Tova and challenged by a bold rebel named Cael, Lyra begins to understand that truth resonates deeper than illusion-and that her voice, once silenced, may be strong enough to awaken the real flame. But aboveground, Queen Aureline's grip on the kingdom is faltering. With copper reserves dwindling and rumors of rebellion rising, she places a bounty on Lyra's head, declaring her a heretic and a threat to the sacred flame. As tensions erupt between those who wield illusion and those who speak in truth, Lyra must choose whether to hide in the Hollow or carry the white flame-the Truefire-into the heart of the kingdom's corruption. As the Queen's illusions unravel, the people begin to question what they once believed sacred. And when Lyra stands before the throne with a flame that burns clean and cannot be faked, the world will finally be forced to listen to a voice it tried to erase. Secondborn is a lyrical fantasy of rebellion, identity, and the quiet revolution of truth. Perfect for fans of Shadow and Bone, The Gilded Wolves, and An Ember in the Ashes, it explores the power of voice-both literal and political-in a society built on silence.
