The Fallen Isles trilogy begins with Before She Ignites (2017), in which Mira Minkoba, a young woman with a deep connection to dragons, is imprisoned on a volcanic island. The series follows her fight for survival and the larger political conflict surrounding the dragons’ place in her world.
As She Ascends and When She Reigns continue the story through 2019, expanding the scope from prison survival to a broader battle over the fate of the Fallen Isles. The series has a different tone from Meadows’s earlier Incarnate books, with more emphasis on action and political intrigue.
