Legati a doppio filo dall'amore, dall'onore o dal fuoco. Una strega e un cacciatore di streghe legati nel sacro vincolo del matrimonio. Quella storia poteva andare a finire in un unico modo: un palo e un fiammifero… Due anni fa, Louise Le Blanc è fuggita dalla sua congrega e si è rifugiata a Cesarine, rinunciando a ogni forma di magia e vivendo di furti ed espedienti. Perché in quella tetra città le streghe come lei fanno paura. Vengono braccate. E mandate al rogo. Reid Diggory è un cacciatore, ha giurato fedeltà alla Chiesa e da sempre vive secondo un unico, ferreo principio: uccidere le streghe. La sua strada non avrebbe mai dovuto incrociare quella di Lou, ma un perverso scherzo del destino li costringe a un’unione impossibile: il santo matrimonio. Ma anche se quella tra le streghe e la Chiesa è una guerra antica come il mondo, un nemico crudele ha in serbo per Lou un destino peggiore del rogo. E lei, che non può cambiare la propria natura e nemmeno ignorare sentimenti che stanno sbocciando nel suo cuore, si trova di fronte a una scelta terribile...

In the late 1800s, three sisters use witchcraft to change the course of history in Alix E. Harrow's powerful novel of magic and the suffragette movement. In 1893, there's no such thing as witches. There used to be, in the wild, dark days before the burnings began, but now witching is nothing but tidy charms and nursery rhymes. If the modern woman wants any measure of power, she must find it at the ballot box. But when the Eastwood sisters -- James Juniper, Agnes Amaranth, and Beatrice Belladonna -- join the suffragists of New Salem, they begin to pursue the forgotten words and ways that might turn the women's movement into the witch's movement. Stalked by shadows and sickness, hunted by forces who will not suffer a witch to vote -- and perhaps not even to live -- the sisters will need to delve into the oldest magics, draw new alliances, and heal the bond between them if they want to survive. There's no such thing as witches. But there will be. An homage to the indomitable power and persistence of women, The Once and Future Witches reimagines stories of revolution, sapphic love, motherhood, and women's suffrage--the lost ways are calling.

From #1 Amazon bestselling author Robyn Abbott comes the first release in a devastating, sprawling epic fantasy series. Lover. Soothsayer. Harbinger. On an island where dreaming is forbidden, and prophecy is punishable by death, Mira is a Goldkeeper—trained from a young age to guard a nobleman’s wealth, bear his heirs, and surrender any daughters she might have to the ruthless order that raised her. But when a chance encounter with a raider from across the sea means Mira is mistaken for a prisoner in need of rescue, she’s spirited away to a floating city. Its king promises to secure Mira’s passage home if she’ll read his fortune first. While Mira learns the heretical art of rune casting to uphold her end of the bargain, she finds herself drawn to the lighthearted raider who liberated her in error. He’s everything she was warned about: a thief, a heathen, and an impossibly beautiful temptation. Loving him would make her a traitor to her order. As Mira’s disappearance sets her homeland on a path to violence and ancient powers begin to stir, Mira will have to decide if fate is something to obey or something to defy. Her heart, and the future of kingdoms, hangs in the balance. A viking-inspired fairy tale rife with prophecies, court intrigue, and heart-wrenching forbidden love, OF WIND AND FATE is perfect for fans of Throne of Glass, The Knight and the Moth, and The Priory of the Orange Tree.
