Beschreibung

Magical illnesses require magical cures, and time is running out.

It's been months since I left my home town. I'd never traveled outside its wall before. It seems like only yesterday that my biggest concern was writing my next hit article. Now, I'm running from the police and desperately searching for the only man who may know how to cure me of a magical ailment.

I'm not alone, but I can feel the patience and energy of the man by my side diminish day by day. It's hard to persuade him that I'm spending all my time looking for another man so I can be whole for him. I fear that the green monster of jealousy grows in him as surely as my own demons do in me.

What's worse, as I discover more about my disease and its source, trust in even my closest friends is starting to wane. There's a calm in understanding your misfortunes and terrible anxiety in learning you know so much less than you thought.
I just want to be free of all this and marry the man who has offered his heart to me. But, I'm afraid I cannot go where the remedy calls from. Some doors must remain closed, despite how well they're hidden.

Whatever my path, I'd better move quickly because I'm starting to lose track of what's real and what's fantasy.

A suspenseful historical fantasy full of witty banter and difficult dilemmas!

To be honest, it took me a while to get back into the story, because I've read part 1 in 2018. But that it not the book's fault but mine. So I needed about a third of the book until I stopped asking what had happened and just enjoyed the story, with the information I had. Luella is on the run, because she is wanted for murder and is searching for a cure for her magical illness. She makes some surprising new friends / allies and discoveres more and more secrets about Bram, the carnival worker, who gave her the magic pen, her illness and magic in general. Towards the end, she decides to go back, to clean her name, but it's not working as planned. After my first struggles, (again, my problem, not the book's) I really enjoyed the story and multiple times yelled at her, not to be so stupid and finally do what she is supposed to. The book ends with a cliffhanger and I'm more than happy that the last book is already waiting here for me to read it. I received a free copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review.
