Bloodwitch

The Bloodwitch Aeduan and the Threadwitch Iseult are on the run through the mountains of the Witchlands. The Raider King is pushing hard to bring the whole continent under his rule, and his forces are spreading terror and killing innocents as they go.

Aeduan and Iseult want different things, yet the fight to stay alive has taught them to rely on one another. That reliance is fragile, and the book keeps testing it. Aeduan also faces a past he can no longer keep hidden, and the story follows him more closely than the earlier volumes do.

This is young adult epic fantasy, the third full novel in the Witchlands series. War has returned to the Witchlands. Iseult is separated from the Truthwitch Safi, and the book suggests that the two of them together might have the power to bring peace.

Expect a tense, dangerous tone, with a world of rival witches and kingdoms at war and a protagonist forced to answer for what he has done.
