__YSCALIN, LAND OF SUNSHINE AND LAVENDER, WILL SOON BE ABLAZE._
It has been centuries since the Draconic Army took wing, almost extinguishing humankind.
Marosa Vetalda is a prisoner in her own home, controlled by her cold father, King Sigoso. Over the mountains, her betrothed, Aubrecht Lievelyn, rules Mentendon in all but name. Together, they intend to usher in a better world.
A better world seems impossibly distant to Estina Melaugo, who hunts the Draconic beasts that have slept across the world for centuries.
And now the great wyrm Fyredel is stirring, and Yscalin will be the first to fall . . .
A STORY OF HUMAN RESILIENCE IN THE FACE OF DIRE CIRCUMSTANCES, _AMONG THE BURNING FLOWERS_ LEADS READERS THROUGH THE GRIPPING AND TRAGIC EVENTS THAT PAVE THE WAY FOR THE OPENING OF THE MILLION-COPY BESTSELLER _THE PRIORY OF THE ORANGE TREE_.
