Om den här e-boken
The first in the New York Times bestselling Witchlands series, Truthwitch by Susan Dennard is a brilliantly imagined coming-of-age story. It's perfect for fans of Robin Hobb, Victoria Aveyard and Trudi Canavan.
‘Truthwitch by Susan Dennard is like a cake stuffed full of your favourite fantasy treats . . . this book will delight you’ – Robin Hobb, author of Assassin’s Apprentice
In a continent on the edge of war, two witches hold its fate in their hands
Young witches Safiya and Iseult have a habit of finding trouble. After clashing with a powerful Guildmaster and his ruthless Bloodwitch bodyguard, the friends are forced to flee their home.
Safi must avoid capture at all costs as she's a rare Truthwitch, able to discern truth from lies. Many would kill for her magic, so Safi must keep it hidden – lest she be used in the struggle between empires. And Iseult's true powers are hidden even from herself.
In a chance encounter at Court, Safi meets Prince Merik and makes him a reluctant ally. However, his help may not slow down the Bloodwitch now hot on the girls' heels. All Safi and Iseult want is their freedom, but danger lies ahead. With war coming, treaties breaking and a magical contagion sweeping the land, the friends will have to fight emperors and mercenaries alike. For some will stop at nothing to get their hands on a Truthwitch.
Continue the bestselling fantasy adventure with Windwitch by Susan Dennard.

So this book surprised me! When I read the excerpt I liked the tempo and the characters, but I was very confused about all the witchtypes and felt that it might make my head spin once I read the full thing. Luckily that was not the thing, because once you get into the book you forget all about witch types and just sit back and enjoy the characters and the world building. So enjoyable! I wasn't even disturbed by all the POVs and intriguing storylines, which might have been a problem in a less enjoyable book, but now I was just "well, if they don't solve it in this book then I'm going to have a good time reading the next one". The romance was a bit... predictable, I'd say. Still enjoyable and cute, but predictable. Not a major disturbance. I do, however, hope to see some LGBT+ pairs in this because for some reason I felt that it fit with the world and would not be something that was looked down upon? What do you guys think? Looking forward to continuing this series!
