About The Tethered Mage
In the Raverran Empire, magic is rare and tightly controlled by the Falcon Army. Streetwise Zaira has hidden her mage-mark to avoid conscription, but her power is too dangerous to ignore. When fate binds her to Lady Amalia Cornaro, scholar and political heir, one spark could set their city ablaze.
