My pick of the week is:
A Conjuring of Light (Shades of Magic #3)
By: VE Schwab, Victoria Schwab
Coming: 21 February 2017
Publisher: Tor Books
Summary:
The battle between four magical Londons comes to a head in this stunning finale to the New York Times bestselling Shades of Magic trilogy by rising star V. E. Schwab
Londons fall and kingdoms rise while darkness sweeps the Maresh Empire—and the fraught balance of magic blossoms into dangerous territory while heroes and foes struggle alike. The direct sequel to A Gathering of Shadows, and the final book in the Shades of Magic epic fantasy series, A Conjuring of Light sees Schwab reach a thrilling culmination concerning the fate of beloved protagonists—and old enemies.
“Addictive and immersive, A Gathering of Shadows cements this series as a must-read. Rich details illuminate every dimension of an extravagant city flooded with magic, and intriguing personalities evolve into complex characters. …Schwab already has us anticipating the rest of the series.”–Entertainment Weekly, A
“[A Darker Shade of Magic] feels like a priceless object, brought from another, better world of fantasy books. Schwab’s writing is engaging and vivid…kept me engrossed by its story every bit as much as I was fascinated by its complex, multilayered world.”—io9.com
“Has all the hallmarks of a classic work of fantasy…Schwab has given us a gem of a tale. This is a book to treasure.”—Deborah Harkness, New York Times bestselling author of The All Souls trilogy on A Darker Shade of Magic
Why I’m excited:
I am absolutely addicted to this series. I cannot wait to see how things go down. I heard A Gathering of Shadows ended on an epic cliffhanger, so I have waited until A Conjuring of Light comes out to binge the last two. This tale of alternate Londons is fan-freaking-tastic!
Why I need you to be excited:
Victoria Schwab is amazing. If you haven’t read her books yet, you are seriously missing out!
