Fantasy & SciFi
Set in an alternative Edwardian England, this is a comedy of manners, manor houses, and hedge mazes: including a magic-infused murder mystery and a delightful queer romance.
'Lush historical fantasy . . . A delightful book, with richly developed characters' – New York Times
‘Mystery! Magic! Murder! . . . This book is a confection, both marvellous and light’ – Alix E. Harrow, author of The Ten Thousand Doors of January
For fans of Georgette Heyer or Julia Quinn's Bridgerton, who'd like to welcome magic into their lives . . .
Young baronet Robin Blyth thought he was taking up a minor governmental post. However, he's actually been appointed parliamentary liaison to a secret magical society. If it weren’t for this administrative error, he’d never have discovered the incredible magic underlying his world.
Cursed by mysterious attackers and plagued by visions, Robin becomes determined to drag answers from his missing predecessor – but he’ll need the help of Edwin Courcey, his hostile magical-society counterpart. Unwillingly thrown together, Robin and Edwin will discover a plot that threatens every magician in the British Isles.
The Binding meets Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell in debut author Freya Marske’s A Marvellous Light. Continue the thrilling series with A Restless Truth.
‘A dazzling debut’ – Shelley Parker-Chan, author of She Who Became the Sun

Denne boken var overraskende orginal til å ha en såpass u-orginal plot. Denne romantiske boken med en magisk «redde verden» plot var smart, med et logisk magi-system som åpner for mer utforskning. Romansen i boken er bygd på respekt, forståelse, tålmodighet. Begge disse tingene er noe jeg alltid ser etter i en fantasi-romanse. Som sagt er ploten litt uorginal, men jeg føler at det er vridd og vendt på på en mer interresant måte som ikke krever utenforstående hindringer og miss kommunikasjon for å være spennende

Varning for å ha den på høytaleren, litt husmorsporno et par steder i boken. 😂 Ellers sjarmerende bok altså. 👌🏼

Starta med lydboka, men denne innlesaren er så dårleg at det var umogleg å vite om eg likte boka eller ikkje. Sidan eg las boka ilag med fleire på Discord, kjøpte eg eboka. Glad eg gjorde det, for boka eg fin og underhaldande.

Søt historie, men litt cringe.
