The Tethered Mage: Swords and Fire, cartea 1

Autor Melissa Caruso
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 23 oct 2017
The first book in a spellbinding fantasy trilogy for fans of TheQueen of the TearlingandThe Red Queen, where two young women -- a mage with coveted powers, and the scion of a powerful family -- are magically bound in service to the Empire.

Magic is scarce in the Raverran Empire, and those born with such powers are strictly controlled -- taken as children and conscripted into the Falcon army, to be used as weapons in times of war.

Zaira has lived her life on the streets to avoid this fate, hiding her mage mark and thieving to survive. But hers is a rare and dangerous magic, one that threatens the entire Empire.

Lady Amalia Cornaro was never meant to be a Falconer. Heiress and scholar, she was born into a treacherous world of political machinations.

But fate has bound the heir and the mage. And as war looms on the horizon, a single spark could turn their city into a pyre.


The Tethered Mageis the first novel in Caruso's debut series, Swords and Fire.
