A mage for the British royals matches wits with a power-mad old foe
in a beguiling novel of enchantments and daring by Shannon Fay,
author of Innate Magic. London, 1958. By crafting magical outfits
for his friend, Princess Katherine, cloth mage Paul Gallagher is
getting ahead. It's not a seamless path. Not since the Virtuis
Party came to power. The far-right faction is using criminals to
create a protective barrier around England. The enchanted uniforms
the prisoners wear may beget a demand for mages, but using luckless
convicts as tools for warmongering reactionaries isn't Paul's dream
for cloth magic. His road to success takes an even darker turn when
the unexpected death of a member of the royal family plunges the
country into chaos. The Virtuis Party is rising, its mysterious
puppet master is gaining control, and Paul and his allies are
prepared to do anything to protect the princess, the throne, and
ultimately, the soul of the country. That means falling back on the
innate magic Paul dreads using again. It's illegal, dangerous, and
so potent it can raise the dead. But as the fate of the entire
nation hangs by a thread, dire times call for extreme magic.
