Naast De Raven verschijnen er nog meer boeken met heksen in de hoofdrol dit jaar. Ik ben het meest benieuwd naar de volgende drie boeken in deze blogpost!
Sweet & Bitter Magic – Adrienne Tooley
Verschijningsdatum: 9 maart
Tamsin is the most powerful witch of her generation. But after committing the worst magical sin, she’s exiled by the ruling Coven and cursed with the inability to love. The only way she can get those feelings back—even for just a little while—is to steal love from others.
Wren is a source—a rare kind of person who is made of magic, despite being unable to use it herself. Sources are required to train with the Coven as soon as they discover their abilities, but Wren—the only caretaker to her ailing father—has spent her life hiding her secret.
When a magical plague ravages the queendom, Wren’s father falls victim. To save him, Wren proposes a bargain: if Tamsin will help her catch the dark witch responsible for creating the plague, then Wren will give Tamsin her love for her father.
Of course, love bargains are a tricky thing, and these two have a long, perilous journey ahead of them—that is, if they don’t kill each other first…
Hekserij, liefde en een koningindom klinkt als een fantastische combinatie. Ik ben heel erg benieuwd in welke tijd dit verhaal zich afspeelt. Het klinkt als de middeleeuwen, maar wellicht zit ik daar volledig naast.
Witches Steeped in Gold – Ciannon Smart
Verschijningsdatum: 20 april
Iraya has spent her life in a cell, but every day brings her closer to freedom – and vengeance.
Jazmyne is the Queen’s daughter, but unlike her sister before her, she has no intention of dying to strengthen her mother’s power.
Sworn enemies, these two witches enter a precarious alliance to take down a mutual threat. But power is intoxicating, revenge is a bloody pursuit, and nothing is certain – except the lengths they will go to win this game.
This Jamaican-inspired fantasy debut about two enemy witches who must enter into a deadly alliance to take down a common enemy has the twisted cat-and-mouse of Killing Eve with the richly imagined fantasy world of Furyborn and Ember in the Ashes.
Dit boek heb ik al gepreorderd! Mocht je dat ook willen, dan kan ik het aanraden om even te kijken op de auteur haar twitter. Ze heeft namelijk een hele gave preorder actie lopen omtrent haar debuut.
Witches Steeped in Gold klinkt als een heel spannend boek en ik ben ook erg benieuwd naar de inspiratie die is gehaald uit de Jamaicaanse cultuur.
Blood Like Magic – Liselle Sambury
Verschijningsdatum: 15 juni
After years of waiting for her Calling—a trial every witch must pass in order to come into their powers—the one thing Voya Thomas didn’t expect was to fail. When Voya’s ancestor gives her an unprecedented second chance to complete her Calling, she agrees—and then is horrified when her task is to kill her first love. And this time, failure means every Thomas witch will be stripped of their magic.
Voya is determined to save her family’s magic no matter the cost. The problem is, Voya has never been in love, so for her to succeed, she’ll first have to find the perfect guy—and fast. Fortunately, a genetic matchmaking program has just hit the market. Her plan is to join the program, fall in love, and complete her task before the deadline. What she doesn’t count on is being paired with the infuriating Luc—how can she fall in love with a guy who seemingly wants nothing to do with her?
With mounting pressure from her family, Voya is caught between her morality and her duty to her bloodline. If she wants to save their heritage and Luc, she’ll have to find something her ancestor wants more than blood. And in witchcraft, blood is everything.
Het is al even geleden dat ik een urban fantasy heb gelezen terwijl ik het juist een erg leuk genre vind. Daarnaast vind ik het tof dat alle genoemde boeken in deze blogpost kwa hekserij zo anders van elkaar zijn.
Naar welk boek kijk jij het meest naar uit?
Liefs,
