Blood and Flame: Book One of The Quinate's Faithful - Paperback

by Brendan Corbett (Author), Tom Edwards (Illustrator), Celestian Rince (Editor)

Two young women from vastly different worlds.

A magical quest that will test all that they believe.

Beneath the shroud of darkness, two Initiates await their future. Both seek the same-to undergo the Rite of the Faithful and become Mages in the Quinarium.

For Dara, becoming a Blood Mage is a way to flee poverty and leave her past behind, while Wynne's desire to be a Flame Mage means rebelling against her family's wishes and turning her back on her wealth and status.

Paired together to perform their unusual rite, they must stop the mysterious slaughter of a village's livestock and investigate rumors of an impossible source of mana, the fuel used for magic.

Their quest sends them on a fantastical journey across the world of Llendshold, from dangerous Fae forests, across treacherous waters, and deep underground into a dwarf city.

In seeking answers, their loyalty to the Quinarium is shaken to breaking point. Nor can they ignore the power of their growing bond.

But if they stand up for what is right and embrace the truth, will it mean losing all that they hoped for?

Blood and Flame is Book One in The Quinate's Faithful, a fantasy trilogy filled with magic, action-packed adventures, and a touch of slow-burn romance.
