Acerca deste livro eletrónico
''A searingly brilliant fantasy. This is magical school with teeth. Warm-hearted, terrifying and clever . . . an unmissable read' Tasha Suri, author of The Jasmine Throne
A Deadly Education meets Rivers of London in this captivating contemporary fantasy from Sunday Times bestselling author Emily Tesh, winner of the Hugo and World Fantasy Awards.
Dr. Walden is the Director of Magic at Chetwood Academy and one of the most powerful magicians in England. Her days consist of meetings, teaching A-Level Invocation to four talented, chaotic sixth formers, more meetings and securing the school's boundaries from demonic incursions.
Walden is good at her job - no, Walden is great at her job. But demons are masters of manipulation. It's her responsibility to keep her school with its six hundred students and centuries-old legacy safe. But it's possible the entity Walden most needs to keep her school safe from, is herself . . .
'The grown-up answer to the magical boarding school tale . . . Fantastic in every sense of the word'
Freya Marske, author of A Marvellous Light
'An absolute flex of a book, empathetic and passionate and deeply thoughtful. Above all, Tesh will make you care: about place, self, and the brave, impulsive, vulnerable, curious, incandescent young lives that are our future. A gorgeous evocation of what it means to have a calling'
Shelley Parker-Chan, author of She Who Became the Sun
