The Wake of Saints – Artem’s Ledger Volume 1

The fate of the kingdom is in the hands of a killer…

In Brig Nugh, an extraordinary chain of events is unleashed when sorcerer’s assistant Safia James foils an attempt on the life of her master. Shunned and left with blood on her hands, Safia finds an uneasy ally in Isa Cario: the best friend of the dead assassin who has been ordered to the city to seek both answers and penance for the actions of her deceased friend.

With political tensions in the Gadleen Empire on the brink of all-out disaster, the sorcerer dispatches Safia and Isa to hunt down three missing relics crucial to an enchantment that can restore the balance of power.

As the young strangers embark on their epic adventure, they’ll face iron-fisted mob bosses, disastrous shipwrecks, royal romance, murderous betrayals and—perhaps most dangerously of all—the realisation they have more in common than either could have believed . . .

Experience the beginning of a stunning new YA Fantasy series with a cast of unforgettable characters, ideal for readers who are already addicted to Samantha Shannon, Sarah J. Maas and Leigh Bardugo.

If you’re a fan of fantasy, especially works like “Priory of the Orange Tree”, you’ll be captivated by this book! The author’s intricate writing, immersive world-building, and compelling characters made it an unforgettable journey for me.
