Beschreibung

In a Britain where the study of magick inspires many a drawing-room debate, Magistra Sophie Marshall and her shapeshifting professor husband must bend all their learning toward saving the nation from ruin...Amid the bustle of Oxford University, Lady Morgan College has waited for two hundred years, its grounds overgrown, its buildings abandoned. Sophie Marshall is determined to revive magickal education for women in Britain, and where better than its first seat? The mystery of Lady Morgan's closure has eluded everyone before her, but Sophie has unique advantages: a degree in magickal theory, a stomach for terrifying revelations-and a royal father who owes her a favor.For Sophie's beloved husband Gray must leave her again, at the request of his king, to spy on a peculiar army massing at Britain's borders. Led by the so-called Emperor of Gaul, the army wins its battles unopposed, absorbing enemies as if swallowing them whole. Gray fears the Emperor has rediscovered an ancient and deadly truth of the magick that connects their lands. They may all fall under such uncanny dominion-unless Sophie can unearth the secret and rush to Gray's aid. And they'll need all the help they can get...Praise for A Season of Spells:"e;Hunter's characters and setting feel fully formed, and the story moves briskly through its twists and turns. This compelling blend of fantasy, intrigue, and Regency romance adds up to a thoroughly satisfying adventure."e; - Publishers Weekly"e;Intriguing fantasy."e; - Library Journal
