"Everyone wants the crown. Not everyone lives to claim it." Behind the walls of Elarion Citadel, seven champions have been summoned for the Trial of Thorns; a brutal, mysterious competition to determine the realm's next ruler. Glory, power, legacy… they say the reward is worth the blood. But someone isn't playing by the rules. In this fantasy-thriller audio series, one of the champions is not who they claim to be. Another is quietly killing off the competition. And our heroine is not here to win. She's here to uncover the truth... and end whoever's hiding behind a gilded lie. Darkly immersive, treacherously cruel, and full of secrets best left buried, A Trial of Thorns is a weekly fantasy podcast told in serialized chapters. The game has already begun. And not everyone will survive it.
