Raymond E Feist's King of Ashes, Kate Mosse's The Burning Chambers and Lisa Genova's Every Note Played

As you say, it begins on this battlefield where there's just been an absolute massacre between the forces of these different kingdoms and the Firemane kingdom has been defeated.

Raymond E Feist's King of Ashes, Kate Mosse's The Burning Chambers and Lisa Genova's Every Note Played

Very soon we see the entire Firemane royal family slaughtered on a gallows by the troops and no one's really happy about it.

Raymond E Feist's King of Ashes, Kate Mosse's The Burning Chambers and Lisa Genova's Every Note Played

Everyone's sort of being cold.

The Bookshelf
Raymond E Feist's King of Ashes, Kate Mosse's The Burning Chambers and Lisa Genova's Every Note Played

Yeah.

The Bookshelf

Yeah, and there's goodies on the battlefield who've had to be part of this.

So there's a lot of tension.

And this is the last remaining, we think, child of the Firemane dynasty.

Raymond E Feist's King of Ashes, Kate Mosse's The Burning Chambers and Lisa Genova's Every Note Played

And his name's Hartu.

The Bookshelf
Raymond E Feist's King of Ashes, Kate Mosse's The Burning Chambers and Lisa Genova's Every Note Played

Is that how you read that?

The Bookshelf
Raymond E Feist's King of Ashes, Kate Mosse's The Burning Chambers and Lisa Genova's Every Note Played

Look, I always guess with these things.

The Bookshelf
Raymond E Feist's King of Ashes, Kate Mosse's The Burning Chambers and Lisa Genova's Every Note Played

But yes, Hartu, I would say.

Hartu Shuley Firemane is his full name.

Raymond E Feist's King of Ashes, Kate Mosse's The Burning Chambers and Lisa Genova's Every Note Played

And he's sent away to live with this baby.

The Bookshelf
Raymond E Feist's King of Ashes, Kate Mosse's The Burning Chambers and Lisa Genova's Every Note Played

sort of shadow kingdom.

The Bookshelf
Raymond E Feist's King of Ashes, Kate Mosse's The Burning Chambers and Lisa Genova's Every Note Played

Yes, and this kingdom wields a lot of power in doing that, but covertly.

So he's sent to this school where you learn to be an assassin, mafioso type and slink through towns and collect information.

And there he makes two fantastic friends, one of which is a guy called Dante, who is much bigger than Hattu.
