Be warned of a sorceress scorned. When eighteen-year-old Aaira Devoni is accidentally caught in the middle of a vendetta unrelated to her, Aaira—a simple seamstress—finds herself cast into an alternate reality by a sorceress who was once banished by the king for possessing magic. With the help of the dashing prince Kerat Knight, who suffered the same fate, and a brooding sorcerer, they must find a way home. They learn of Moonscript, an ancient tome belonging to the sorceress that contains the history of magic and which may have the spell to take them home. However, it also tells of the gods and goddesses who once walked the land. Gods who have woken once more; gods who may now control the very threads of Aaira’s fate. She will do whatever it takes to get home—but not before discovering her own magic, a shadow magic once used to control ill-fated half-gods. She must face the consequences of the curse that banished magic a thousand years ago while facing a future where magic has appeared once more. If there’s one thing she’s learned, it is that magic has returned with a vengeance and is unforgiving. A Thread of Shadows is the first book in the Shadow and Trickster trilogy. It is perfect for fantasy fans with hints of a slow-burn romance, complete with adventure and sorcery.
