Astrid Scholte Libri
Astrid Scholte tesse un arazzo unico di fantasia e intrigo, attingendo da un fascino per il fantastico durato una vita e una sorprendente affinità per i misteri di omicidio. Le sue narrazioni fondono sapientemente la costruzione di mondi epici con avvincenti trame "whodunit", creando uno stile distintivo che tiene i lettori con il fiato sospeso. L'opera di Scholte approfondisce le intersezioni inaspettate tra immaginazione e suspense, offrendo ai lettori viaggi fantasiosi pieni di meraviglia e rivelazioni agghiaccianti.
"Seventeen-year-old Tempe brings her dead sister back to life for twenty-four hours in hopes of unraveling the truth behind their parents' death"-- Provided by publisher
Ever since his mother was killed, seventeen-year-old Cayder Broduck has had one goal-to see illegal users of magic brought to justice. People who carelessly use extradimensional magic for their own self-interest, without a care to the damage it does to society or those around them, deserve to be punished as far as Cayder is concerned. Because magic always has a price. So when Cayder lands a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to apprentice under a premier public defender, he takes it. If he can learn all the tricks of public defense, the better he'll be able to dismantle defense arguments when he's a prosecutor. Then he'll finally be able to make sure justice is served. But when he meets the three criminals he's supposed to defend, it no longer seems so black and white. They're teenagers, like him, and their stories are . . . complicated, like his. Vardean, the prison where Cayder's new clients are incarcerated, also happens to be at the very heart of the horrible tear in the veil between their world and another dimension-where all magic comes from. League of Liars is a dark and twisty mystery set in a richly-drawn world where nothing is as it seems, rife with magic, villains and danger.
