Shadowblack could be a great book for anyone who likes fantasy books with a unique twist. It has a wild west flavour that blends well with its humorous and magical plot. The main character, Kellen, is an outlaw mage who is thrust into a conspiracy of magic, blackmail, and murder. The tension and power struggles are perfectly balanced with humour, creating a fun yet suspenseful read.

Riley is your virtual thrift companion, and here to help you find your next favourite read. You can also find in-stock similar reads linked by topic and genre here!

SORCERY IS A SCAM . . .

Four months after fleeing his own people, Kellen has discovered he's an even worse outlaw than he was mage. It doesn't help that his only allies are a swaggering card player and a thieving squirrel cat.

Then he meets Seneira, a blindfolded girl who isn't blind, and whose secrets get them caught up in a conspiracy of magic, blackmail and murder. Now Kellen must find the mage responsible before the entire frontier falls victim to the mystical plague known as the shadowblack.

Perfect for fans of The Dark Tower, Firefly, Guardians of the Galaxy, Terry Pratchett, Ben Aaronovitch and Jim Butcher.
