Truthwitch by Susan Dennard
On sale: January 5th 2016
Synopsis: On a continent ruled by three empires, some are
born with a “witchery,” a magical skill that sets them apart from others.
In the Witchlands, there are almost as many types of magic
as there are ways to get in trouble—as two desperate young women know all too
well.
Safiya is a Truthwitch, able to discern truth from lie. It’s
a powerful magic that many would kill to have on their side, especially amongst
the nobility to which Safi was born. So Safi must keep her gift hidden, lest
she be used as a pawn in the struggle between empires.
Iseult, a Threadwitch, can see the invisible ties that bind
and entangle the lives around her—but she cannot see the bonds that touch her
own heart. Her unlikely friendship with Safi has taken her from life as an
outcast into one of of reckless adventure, where she is a cool, wary balance to
Safi’s hotheaded impulsiveness.

end of the world, and sometimes you just have to find the extraordinary in your
ordinary life.
Even if your best friend is worshiped by mountain lions.
