Kalima, an Earth-colony world with little mineable iron and no fossil fuels, is entrenched in a peaceful feudal society. The Jundom of Mamalakah is ruled by the ambitious Hanna Zah-Hill, wife of the Jun First. Hanna wants to overturn the status quo. But Mistress Li of Xintou House prefers to keep the world in the dark ages. And has the power to do so.

When Alere Connor - failed xintou-telepath but skilled swordswoman - is sent to act as mistress to Jun First Radan Zah-Hill, she unwittingly triggers a revolution against the House and against the Jun. On his deathbed, Radan reveals the existence of a hidden iron ore deposit. With several factions vying for political domination of the Jundom, control of the iron would tip the balance of power.

Alere is accused of the Jun First's murder and flees for her life. She must reach and warn the Jun Second, Rafi Koh-Lin, on whose lands the iron ore lies. If she fails, all-out war is inevitable - the first ever war in the seven hundred year history of Kalima.

On the way, Alere will uncover the old and bloody secret of her own existence; the reason for her failure as a xintou-telepath; and unlock and even darker future for herself and her companions.

But only if she survives.

Industry Reviews

"I loved IRON. Flinthart has merged three cultures into a fascinating amalgam and laid an interesting YA plot with great characters right through the middle of it." Kylie Chan (Author of the Dark Heavens, and Celestial Battle series)
