Wishlist Wednesday: Mysteries of Thorn Manor
When is it out?: Already released
What’s it about?: Elisabeth Scrivener is finally settling into her new life with sorcerer Nathaniel Thorn. Now that their demon companion Silas has returned, so has scrutiny from nosy reporters hungry for gossip about the city’s most powerful sorcerer and the librarian who stole his heart. But something strange is afoot at Thorn Manor: the estate’s wards, which are meant to keep their home safe, are acting up and forcibly trapping the Manor’s occupants inside. Surely it must be a coincidence that this happened just as Nathaniel and Elisabeth started getting closer to one another…
With no access to the outside world, Elisabeth, Nathaniel, and Silas – along with their new maid Mercy – will have to work together to discover the source of the magic behind the malfunctioning wards before they’re due to host the city’s Midwinter Ball. Not an easy task when the house is filled with unexpected secrets, and all Elisabeth can think about is kissing Nathaniel in peace. But when it becomes clear that the house, influenced by the magic of Nathaniel’s ancestors, requires a price for its obedience, Elisabeth and Nathaniel will have to lean on their connection like never before to set things right.
Why do I want to read it?: Sorcery of Thorns was a fantastic five-star read for me and I instantly fell in love with both the characters and the world, and I’ve seen a few reviews which suggest that this feels like a slice-of-life fanfic follow up to the novel, which sounds like the perfect recipe for an amazing story to me. It’ll be great to catch back up with the characters and swoon over the romance again 🙂
