Heartstopping slow-burn romantasy, blending dark magic, high-stakes trials and an unforgettable enemies-to-lovers romance. Set in a world of elite warriors, Blood & Steel is the first entry in the sensational Legends of Thezmarr series from Helen Scheuerer.

Perfect for fans of The Bridge Kingdom, From Blood and Ash and The Witcher.

'A true man won't cut you down as you fight your battles, nor will he fight them for you. A true man will help sharpen your sword, guard your back and fight at your side, in the face of whatever darkness comes.'

With her death foretold, Althea - Thea - only has three years to become what she's always dreamed of being: a warrior legend.

But in Thezmarr, women are forbidden to wield blades, so she has trained in secret her entire life. Now racing against the clock, she fights to secure her place in the elite guild charged with the protection of the five kingdoms.

Wilder Hawthorne is her brooding, powerful and unwilling warrior chaperone. The sparring and hazing of the new trainees border on deadly, but even more dangerous is her growing attraction to Wilder.

All around them, schemes are afoot and darkness looms. Will Thea pass the perilous initiation test and take her place as a champion of Thezmarr, or will the invading evil snatch away her dream before it starts?

'Helen Scheuerer continues to be one of my favourite writers' - Sable Sorensen, #1 internationally bestselling author of Dire Bound
