Mage Call

The Hedgefall Chronicles: Book 2

Advance Reader Copy

Blurb

A YA Fantasy of Magic and Rebellion

Elise thought finding Malvada’s lost chapters would bring her closer to the truth. Instead, it has made her a target.

With the government tightening its grip on magic users, Elise risks everything on a desperate plan: break into the Tower of London and rescue Malvada’s imprisoned son, who may be the key to why the Hedge fell and magic flooded back into the world.

But the Tower holds more than prisoners. Hidden deep within its walls are secrets the Government will kill to keep. Secrets that cast doubt on everything Elise thought she knew.

As Elise’s search for answers leads into the past, Malvada’s own story begins to unfold: the truth of what she did inside the Hedge, the choices that brought the barrier down, and the price of setting magic free.

If Elise wants to save the people she loves, she must decide which stories to believe… and which truths are worth risking a revolution for.
