Blade of Fire: The Icemark Chronicles

(3) YA Twenty years after The Cry of the Icemark's events, Thirrin (now queen) faces another war and must send her son, Charlemagne, into exile. He grows from a self-pitying semi-invalid to fulfill his destiny as a hero. Charlemagne's story line is strong, and the writing is tight. Hill includes the well-drawn creatures he introduced in the first book, plus several fascinating new allies.
