Schall und Schein
Schall und Schein opens Elvira Zeißler's Wortweberin trilogy, a high-romantasy series set in a court threatened by outside invasion.
Chiara has spent her life learning to stay unseen, using her rare gift of word magic to conjure images and illusions in service of Crown Princess Isida. When barbarian hordes suddenly threaten the kingdom's borders and their leader demands Isida's hand in marriage as the price of peace, the king sends Chiara in the princess's place, disguising her to deceive and spy on the enemy from within.
The novel blends court intrigue with a slow-building romance, as Chiara navigates a role built entirely on deception while trying to protect the people she was raised never to matter to.
A word-mage sent to impersonate Crown Princess Isida.
The Crown Princess whose hand is demanded by an invading warlord.
Die Geschichte ist als Trilogie angelegt, wobei Schall und Schein den Auftakt bildet und die Handlung direkt in den Folgebänden Geheimnisse und Glut sowie Frost und Flammen fortgesetzt wird.
Die Wortweberin-Reihe sollte zwingend in der chronologischen Reihenfolge gelesen werden, beginnend mit Schall und Schein, da die Entwicklung der Protagonistin und die politischen Verwicklungen aufeinander aufbauen.
