The Fiery Three: The Trap

A suspenseful historical novel that reveals our shared history and tells the story of eternal human nature, forged by the fight for survival, success, closeness, and love. A highly addictive read.

The historical saga of The Fiery Three is coming to an end. Flame, Vlad, Wolf, Živa and Zora survived another merciless winter. Vesna, the Goddess of Spring, brought warmth and flowers to the land, but also dried up the plains, which set the scene for yet another bloody war. All our heroes want is to find their way back to their loved ones and live in peace. But the road is winding and it seems that a new trap awaits around every bend.

The Trap is the fourth novel in the new historical saga The Fiery Three by Igor Karlovšek, who is known, among other works, for the collection The Fiery Tribe. The suspenseful adventure novel takes place during the settlement of the Slavs in the territory of present-day Slovenia, before the formation of Sam’s Tribal Union and the principality of Carantania. Historical facts (the novel is also accompanied by a foreword by historian Miha Pohar) are interwoven with a coming-of-age story, (first) love, finding one’s place in the world and fighting for survival
