The Silver Hand: Tides of Magic, cartea 2
Autor Shawn Carpenteren Limba Engleză Paperback – 21 mai 2026
Captain Rue Nath is sailing towards what he hopes isn’t his certain doom. As he guides the Redemption into port, the people cheer him and his crew as a hero. But a court martial awaits that could leave him ashore for years, or worse, strip him of his naval rank for good.
But Magister Enid d’Tancreville will do anything in her power to keep that from happening. After escaping the Theocratic Revolution and discarding her dream of fighting against the ‘Rats in the army, she’s not too keen to give up her new position as Captain Nath’s right hand and sorcerer. As Enid tries to drum up support for her beloved captain, Rue must decide whether to take the hand his enemies have dealt him or prove them wrong once again. Even if that means commanding a ship whose captains have only ever met perilous ends.

Notă biografică
Shawn Carpenter is a new author in an old skin. His colorful work history includes cowboy, airman, chicken guard, game designer, and corporate cog. Ships and the sea have enamored Shawn since his childhood in tragically landlocked Oklahoma, where, after peregrinations to all corners of the US, he now lives with his amazing wife, two sons, three dogs, and a cat. His three adult daughters keep tabs on his antics from a safe distance.
Recenzii
Praise for The Price of Redemption, The Tides of Magic, Book 1
“[Carpenter] managed to capture a bit of that original magic that drives sailors to the sea, and it’s a magic that leaps off the page at every turn.”—Lightspeed
* “There’s plenty to savor in this first book in the “Tides of Magic” trilogy for fans of Patrick O’Brian’s “Aubrey/Maturin” novels, readers seeking a new fantasy to fill the void left by the end of Naomi Novik’s “Temeraire” series, lovers of?Our Flag Means Death, those looking for a less-cozy take on Rebecca Thorne’s?Can’t Spell Treason Without Tea, and anyone who’d like to rehash the Napoleonic Wars with a compelling narrative, great characters, swashbuckling derring-do, and epic, heartbreaking betrayals.”—Library Journal
“Taking a page from the classic naval novels of C.S. Forrester and Alexander Kent, debut novelist Carpenter opens his Tides of Magic series by tossing a mage and a commander into a series of entertaining nautical escapades in a fantasy setting reminiscent of the French Revolution. Carpenter’s off to a promising start.”—Publishers Weekly
“A fun, light, and entertaining sea story with magic.”—Locus
“One of the things that the Aubrey and Maturin series did extremely well, that is absolutely a part of?The Price of Redemption, is the way that the story takes the reader through the perspective of a previously (land)lubberly point of view character – Enid here and Maturin in the original series – and uses their instruction by beautifully descriptive but still fascinating details to draw the reader into the arcane mysteries of the sea. It’s marvelous and riveting and a compulsive page-turner every single league of its way.”—Reading Reality
