Dirty Magic: Prospero's War, cartea 1
Autor Jaye Wellsen Limba Engleză Paperback – 20 ian 2014
Action-packed
police
procedural
meets
dark
urban
fantasy
in
a
world
where
cops
and
wizards
are
fighting
a
war
over
addictive,
dangerous,
and
illegal
dirty
magic.
Magic
is
a
drug.
Careful
how
you
use
it.
The
last
thing
patrol
cop
Kate
Prospero
expected
to
find
on
her
nightly
rounds
was
a
werewolf
covered
in
the
blood
of
his
latest
victim.
But
then,
she
also
didn't
expect
that
shooting
him
would
land
her
in
the
crosshairs
of
the
Magic
Enforcement
Agency,
who
want
to
know
why
she
killed
their
lead
snitch.
The
MEA
keeps
dirty
magic
off
the
streets,
but
there's
a
new
blend
out
there
that's
as
deadly
as
it
is
elusive.
The
more
Prospero
learns
about
the
investigation,
the
more
she's
convinced
that
earning
a
spot
on
their
task
force
is
the
career
break
she's
been
wanting.
But
getting
the
assignment
proves
much
easier
than
solving
the
case.
Especially
once
the
investigation
reveals
their
lead
suspect
is
the
man
she
walked
away
from
ten
years
earlier-on
the
same
day
she
swore
she'd
given
up
dirty
magic
for
good.
Kate
Prospero's
about
to
learn
the
hard
way
that
crossing
a
wizard
will
always
get
you
burned,
and
that
when
it
comes
to
magic,
you
should
never
say
never.
The
first
book
the
Prospero's
War
series
from
bestselling
author
Jaye
Wells.

Jaye
Wells
grew
up
reading
everything
she
could
get
her
hands
on.
Her
penchant
for
daydreaming
was
often
noted
by
frustrated
teachers.
She
embarked
on
a
series
of
random
career
paths,
including
stints
working
for
a
motivational
speaker
and
at
an
art
museum.
Jaye
eventually
realized
that
while
she
loved
writing,
she
found
facts
boring.
So,
she
left
all
that
behind
to
indulge
her
overactive
imagination
and
make
stuff
up
for
a
living.
Besides
writing,
she
enjoys
travel,
art,
history,
and
researching
weird
and
arcane
subjects.
She
lives
in
Texas
with
her
saintly
husband
and
devilish
son.
