ECHOES AND EMPIRES
MORGAN RHODES
In an empire built on lies, truth may be the greatest weapon.
Now in paperback, the first book of a new fantasy duology filled with forbidden magic, plenty of snark, and even more action, from Morgan Rhodes, the New York Times bestselling author of the Falling Kingdom series.
Josslyn Drake knows only three things about magic: its rare, illegal, and always deadly.
So when shes caught up in a robbery gone wrong at the Queens Gala and infected by a dangerous piece of magicone that allows her to step into the memories of an infamously evil warlockshe finds herself living her worst nightmare. Joss needs the magic removed before it corrupts her soul and kills her. But in Ironport, the cost of doing magic is death, and seeking help might mean scheduling her own execution. Theres nobody she can trust.
Nobody, that is, except wanted criminal Jericho Nox, who offers her a deal: his help extracting the magic in exchange for the magic itself. And though shes not thrilled to be working with a thief, especially one as infuriating (and infuriatingly handsome) as Jericho, Joss is desperate enough to accept.
But Jericho is nothing like Joss expects. The closer she grows to Jericho and the more she sees of the world outside her pampered life in the city, the more Joss begins to question the beliefs shes always taken for grantedbeliefs about right and wrong, about power and magic, and even about herself.
