Heir to the Shadows: Penguin Publishing Group

Autor Anne Bishop
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 18 mar 2025
In this violently passionate, "darkly fascinating world,"** the Blood rule: a race of witches and warlocks whose power is channeled through magical jewels. Ambitions unfurl in this second novel of The Black Jewels Trilogy, as the realm's dreams of a liberator have finally been made flesh...

Jaenelle, singled out by prophecy as the living embodiment of magic, is haunted by the cruel battles the Blood have fought over her-for not all of them await her as their Savior. Nothing, however, can deflect her from her destiny-and the day of reckoning looms near. When her memories return. When her magic matures. When she is forced to accept her fate. On that day, the dark Realms will know what it means to be ruled by Witch.

Descriere

Descriere de la o altă ediție sau format:
The second in New York Times bestselling author Anne Bishop's captivating Black Jewels trilogy. Witch has come, but now she is lost in darkness - and the fate of everyone she loves hangs in the balance.

For centuries, they have waited. Now Witch - the long-prophesised Queen who will bring freedom to the realms - has finally come. But she is lost in darkness, and has a long road to recovery ahead of her.

While Saetan, her adopted father, waits for her to return to the living world, Daemon, the third side of the triangle needed to complete the prophecy, walks in the Twisted Kingdom on the edge of madness.

As insidious whispers and dark schemes ferment treachery and betrayal, Witch must decide who she is, and what she will become.

To protect those she loves, she must be more than an heir. She must become a Queen.

Recenzii

As much as I enjoyed Daughter of the Blood I loved Heir to the Shadows even more
Bishop seems to delight in turning fantasy conventions on their head . . . darkly opulent, often exotic
It really is stunning in its complexity, so wonderful to read, as far as dark fantasy goes you won't find much better than this
I'm hooked, and looking forward to the final book in the trilogy
a delight to read . . . one of the few sequels I've come across that actually enhances the original book
imaginative and sweeping
The fabulous talent of Anne Bishop is showcased in Heir to the Shadows . . . Ms Bishop's striking magical concepts and powerful images are wonderfully leavened with unexpected dash and humour, creating an irresistible treat for fantasy fans
All the elements that made the first book such a gripping read are present: vivid and sympathetic characters, a fascinating and fully-realised magical system. . .lavish and sensuous descriptions, and interesting world-building that turns traditional gender roles and concepts of dominance and submission on their heads . . . It's a terrific read, and I highly recommend both it and Daughter of the Blood

Daemon, Lucivar and Saetan ooze more sex appeal than any three fictional characters created in a very long time
