A mystical story that boasts the perfect blend of drama, humor, and adventure.
Linden, once a young mage apprentice who struggled to control her abilities, now finds herself in a position of authority, wielding more power than she’s ever wanted. Despite her grand position as Liege, she is not one to sit idly behind the scenes while chaos unfolds around her. Though her closest companion disagrees with the decision, Linden sets off on a dangerous mission to find her missing brother, decisively suppress Mordahn’s noxious influence, and bring peace to the five clans for good. While it hurts to leave Corbahn behind, the fight is coming to Faynwood whether Linden stays to protect the land or heads off the threat by seeking out the dangerous necromancer, Mordahn. Besides the mounting pressure from prophecies that allude to the mending of a long-standing fracture between clans, cryptic warnings from an old psychic, and the burgeoning threat from her enemies, Linden will be tested beyond anything she’s encountered before. Although she finds herself at the center of everything, no matter how complex the strategy or calculated the plan, Linden will need help. Resistance fighters, powerful fay allies, clever spells, and potent but ambiguous prophecies are all at her disposal, as are her close circle of friends, advisors, and her loyal griffin. But even these may not be enough to counter the darkness waiting in the realms of the dead.
One vital part of a dazzling, magical tale, Lady Liege is a heartening demonstration of the formidable power of strengthened relationships. Tendrils of Serving magic are threatened by a menacing foe who is difficult to deter. With dark magic creating an army of disgusting hybrids meant to finally extinguish her heritage and people, pure-hearted Linden has no choice but to hunt or be hunted. While the principal plot elements are not so different from earlier installments—a humble leader who wants to save her nation from evil—hidden relationships are revealed and explored more thoughtfully in this third hypnotic volume. The enemy’s tactics remain the same, but the dread is amped up as the levels of untapped dark magic are deeply exploited, often with chilling results. As matters of the heart compete for emotional space with matters of national concern, Linden will have to make difficult choices that lead to potentially damaging consequences. With persistent inner turmoil and constant external trouble, plenty of delicious drama and nail-biting tension are packed into this riveting installment. The result for readers is an absorbing diversion into a magical world filled with conflict, love, suspense and fun. Get ready for a mystical story that boasts the perfect blend of drama, humor, and adventure!
