This audiobook features an exclusive interview with Samantha Shannon and Katherine Webber, bestselling author of the Twin Crowns trilogy.
With the awakening of fire-breathing dragons, Among the Burning Flowers sees the first sparks of danger that threaten to consume the world in The Priory of the Orange Tree.
Take your first steps into the epic.
Yscalin, land of sunshine and lavender, will soon be ablaze.
It has been centuries since the Draconic Army took wing, almost extinguishing humankind.
Marosa Vetalda is a prisoner in her own home, controlled by her cold father, King Sigoso. Over the mountains, her betrothed, Aubrecht Lievelyn, rules Mentendon in all but name. Together, they intend to usher in a better world.
A better world seems impossibly distant to Estina Melaugo, who hunts the Draconic beasts that have slept across the world for centuries.
And now the great wyrm Fýredel is stirring, and Yscalin will be the first to fall . . .
A story of human resilience in the face of dire circumstances, Among the Burning Flowers leads readers through the gripping and tragic events that pave the way for the opening of the million-copy bestseller The Priory of The Orange Tree.©2025 Samantha Shannon-Jones (P)2025 Bloomsbury Publishing PLC

Reseñas de la crítica
Inventive, intriguing, and endlessly surprising—no one enthralls me like Samantha Shannon.
[A] worthy introduction to the world of Ms. Shannon's Roots of Chaos cycle . . . The worldbuilding here is excellent . . . Fiery fun.
Nobody writes like Samantha Shannon!
At just 250 pages, this book will seem concise compared to the giant tomes the Roots of Chaos series is known for and will come with periodic illustrations by Rovina Cai, making it a delicious and savory bite for any fan . . . The leads are fierce in the face of fire, the wyrms are as terrifying as ever, and the story richly adds to the epic world of Priory . . . Shannon’s Roots of Chaos series has many dedicated, passionate fans who will seek out this latest volume, and readers new to the series will want to know what the buzz is about.
Devoted fans will be pleased by the depth it adds to beloved side characters and the lore of this lush, meticulously drawn world. For those who can’t get enough of Shannon’s worldbuilding, this will be a treat.
The sheer terror that befalls the Yscali people as they face Fýredel’s pure evil is both powerful and relevant. Marosa’s plight further solidifies her as a hero worth remembering; her strength and defiance shine through as hope for the future she’s dreamed of slowly flickers out. Devoted series fans will appreciate the added pieces to this expansive narrative puzzle.
The story’s intensity ebbs and flows thanks to the immersive prose . . . An epic coming-of-age novel wherein loyalties are tested and worlds are reshaped.
Samantha Shannon returns to the sprawling canvas of her Roots of Chaos series with Among the Burning Flowers . . . This book (which is a mere 288 pages) will venture to the kingdom of Yscalin, which is about to fall to the terrifying wyrm Fyredel.
A testament to humankind’s endurance and unending hope for a better future, this brief foray into Shannon’s fantasy world adds a few additional layers to events mentioned in her other books.
This suspenseful novel boasts a shorter page count than its predecessors, making it a perfect lead-in for readers new to the series or to high fantasy . . . An army of dragons reawakens to trouble humankind in this accessible addition to Samantha Shannon’s expansive, inclusive, high-fantasy saga.
Her most elegantly written work . . . [T]his prequel will help newcomers enter a planetary whirl unlike any other . . . Samantha Shannon is a gifted and delightfully creative storyteller.
Samantha Shannon’s writing is as fierce as the magic she conjures. I’m not convinced Shannon isn’t magic herself; her prose is ethereal, her characters captivate the heart and mind. She’s in a league of her own—truly the best fantasy there is.
[O]ne of modern fantasy’s finest world builders.
