A Resistance of Witches (el. knyga) (skaityta knyga) | Morgan Ryan | knygos.lt

Aprašymas

The year is 1943. Hitler's armies are rampaging across Europe, and the witches of Britain have joined the fight.

Stubborn, plain-spoken and from an unimpressive family, Lydia Polk never expected to be accepted into the Royal Academy of Witches. But now, the Academy has joined the war effort, and Lydia is key to the cause: using her extraordinary craft to track down magical relics that could help change the course of the war before Hitler and his cronies can.

When a Nazi witch infiltrates the Academy with devastating consequences, the coven is left shaken, exposed and divided. Some have no interest in assisting a government that has persecuted them for centuries, no matter the consequences. However, rumours of an ancient book, a grimoire, that leaves a trail of death and destruction in its wake, convince Lydia that her mission has never been more urgent.
Making her way to the heart of occupied France, she finds allies in Rebecca Gagne, a fierce French resistance fighter chockful of secrets; and Henry Boudreaux, a handsome Haitian-American art historian with a little magic of his own.
Pursued by enemies both natural and supernatural, they must find the grimoire before the Witches of the Third Reich can use it. For this book holds far more secrets - and power - than anyone had imagined...
