Reigning Abyss is a lyrical East Asian romantasy exploring love, identity, and what it means to rebuild in the aftermath of survival, with neurodivergent and mental health representation at its core.
 
Five years after fleeing the palace in fire and blood, Yan Xun is gone—presumed dead, and determined to remain that way.
 
In her place stands Yan Ling.
 
She was prepared to walk this path alone. But a chance encounter with an azure dragon has opened up a world of possibilities… and perils. Deep within the fabled mountain, a sanctuary is built for those the Empire tries to erase: young Weavers bonded to mythic Emberkin, feared for powers they were never supposed to possess. At least, not according to the Empire.
 
But when a second phoenix comes blasting into her life, Ling must confront a past she thought had long since turned to ash.
 
In a realm that hunts what it cannot control, survival demands more than silence. It demands reckoning.
 
Reigning Abyss is the sequel to Reigning Fire. Both books can be read on their own, but readers who begin with Reigning Fire may find a deeper appreciation for how the characters have changed, and for the world they now have to navigate. Reigning Abyss will be perfect for mature readers of lyrical romantasy and lovers of intricate court intrigue.
 
This edition includes exclusive art inserts, featuring Chinese calligraphy of character names and original illustrations of key characters and scenes - a visual companion to the story’s haunting beauty.
