In a cosy cabin tucked away in the German mountains, Alva Hausmann crafts herbal remedies laced with accidental magic, desperate to suppress memories of a past life as history's most notorious witch. But when the international magical council summons her to London, she is thrust into the heart of a daring plan to unveil magic to humanity - a desperate bid to preserve nature and the roots of witchcraft.
Her memories of a previous catastrophic reveal make her an unwilling oracle of what's to come, but Alva has more to navigate than just her role in the powder keg of magical politics: her estranged twin Ember has become the firebrand of London's young witchy revolution, stoking rebellious flames at her 'Pink Cauldron' nightclub for Mardequai, insidious leader of the immortal druid oligarchs with sinister plans for both humans and witches. In the wake of the grand reveal, Alva uncovers a horrifying truth that binds the twins' fate directly to Mardequai's - and implicates every witch since the pyres of the Inquisition. Now she must harness every ounce of her underdeveloped magic to survive, while partnering with an embittered (yet deadly attractive) druid determined to douse her efforts at every turn.
As Ember stands ready to set the world ablaze in Mardequai's name, Alva will race to save her sister from herself - and history from repeating its darkest chapters. Yet, her greatest battle may be against the evil smouldering within herself...
If you liked A DISCOVERY OF WITCHES by Deborah Harkness, THE CHANGE by Kirsten Miller, THE ONCE AND FUTURE WITCHES by Alix E. Harrow, or WEYWARD by Emilia Hart, you will love THE FLAMES THAT FORGED US.
