Susan Dennard - Bloodwitch
Loyalties ​will be tested as never before. The Raider King's plans to claim the Witchlands are under way. Now, his forces sow terror in the mountains, slaughtering innocents. After finding the slain, Aeduan and Iseult race for safety. And despite differing goals, they've grown to trust one another in the fight to survive. Yet the Bloodwitch keeps a secret that could change everything . . . When Merik sacrifices himself to save his friends, he is captured by the Fury. However, Merik isn't one to give up easily, and he'll do whatever it takes to save those he loves. And in Marstok, Safi the Truthwitch agrees to help the empress uncover a rebellion. But those implicated are killed and Safi becomes desperate for freedom. War has come once more to the Witchlands. Perhaps if Safi and Iseult were united, their powers could bring peace. But chaos is not easily tamed.

Susan Dennard - Das ​Zeichen der Wahrheit
Die ​Magislande sind ein Reich, in dem die Elemente den Menschen magische Begabungen schenken. Doch kein Geschenk ist so kostbar wie die seltene Wahrmagie, über die Safiya verfügt. Indem sie Lüge von Wahrheit unterscheiden kann, wäre ihre Gabe eine gefährliche Waffe in den Händen ihrer mächtigen Feinde. Und davon hat die adelige Safi reichlich. Als der Krieg den Kontinent erschüttert, müssen Safi und ihre Freundin Iseult sich entscheiden, auf welcher Seite sie stehen, und beschließen, ihr Schicksal selbst in die Hand zu nehmen.

Gleichzeitig stellt der Blutmagis Aeduan die flüchtige Iseult, die ihm einen Pakt anbietet: Wenn es Aeduan gelingt, Iseults verschwundene Freundin Safi zu finden, erhält der Blutmagis das Vermögen zurück, das ihm gestohlen wurde. Doch Safi kämpft in einem Land voller Seeräuber um ihr Leben. Werden ihre Gefährten sie rechtzeitig finden – oder muss ihre Wahrmagie sie retten?

Susan Dennard - Sightwitch
From ​the New York Times bestselling author of Windwitch Susan Dennard, an illustrated prequel novella set in the Witchlands setting up the forthcoming hotly anticipated Bloodwitch. Set a year before Truthwitch, Sightwitch follows Ryber Fortiza, the last Sightwitch Sister as she treks deep underground to rescue her missing best friend. While there, she encounters a young Nubrevnan named Kullen Ikray, who has no memory of who he is or how he wound up inside the mountain. As the two journey every deeper in search of answers, and as they brave one close call after another, a tentative friendship forms between them―one that might one day grow into something more. Sightwitch is told through Ryber’s journal entries and her sketches, as well as through supplementary materials (such as other journals, pieces of songs, clippings from history books, flashbacks, etc.). Though meant as a companion novella, this story serves as a set up to Bloodwitch as well as an expansion of the world.

Susan Dennard - Truthwitch
On ​a continent ruled by three empires, some are born with a “witchery”, a magical skill that sets them apart from others. In the Witchlands, there are almost as many types of magic as there are ways to get in trouble—as two desperate young women know all too well. Safiya is a Truthwitch, able to discern truth from lie. It’s a powerful magic that many would kill to have on their side, especially amongst the nobility to which Safi was born. So Safi must keep her gift hidden, lest she be used as a pawn in the struggle between empires. Iseult, a Threadwitch, can see the invisible ties that bind and entangle the lives around her—but she cannot see the bonds that touch her own heart. Her unlikely friendship with Safi has taken her from life as an outcast into one of reckless adventure, where she is a cool, wary balance to Safi’s hotheaded impulsiveness. Safi and Iseult just want to be free to live their own lives, but war is coming to the Witchlands. With the help of the cunning Prince Merik (a Windwitch and ship’s captain) and the hindrance of a Bloodwitch bent on revenge, the friends must fight emperors, princes, and mercenaries alike, who will stop at nothing to get their hands on a Truthwitch.

Susan Dennard - Truthwitch ​- Igazságboszorka
Együtt ​megválthatjuk a világot? Boszorkaföldén majdnem olyan sokféle varázserő létezik, mint ahányféle módon bajba lehet keveredni – és a mindenre elszánt Safiya és Iseult ezt mindenkinél jobban tudja. Safiya igazságboszorka, vagyis képes az igazságot megkülönböztetni a hazugságtól. Nagy hatalommal járó varázserő az övé, olyannyira, hogy egyesek még a gyilkosságtól sem rettennének vissza, ha így a saját oldalukon tudhatnák. Ez különösen igaz a nemességre, arra a társadalmi rétegre, ahová Safi is tartozik. A lánynak ezért titokban kell tartania a képességeit, nehogy bábuvá váljon a birodalmak közti játszmában. Iseult fonálboszorka, aki látja az életeket átszövő fonalakat – a saját szívéből kiinduló fonalak azonban láthatatlanok számára. Az ő és Safi közt szövődött különös barátságnak köszönhetően a kitaszított lány egy vakmerő kalandokkal teli életbe csöppen, amelyben hűvös nyugalma tökéletes ellenpontja Safiya forrófejű, lobbanékony természetének. A két lány nem vágyik másra, mint szabadon élni az életet, ám Boszorkafölde fölött a háború fellegei gyülekeznek. Safinak és Iseultnak egy bosszúszomjas vérboszorkával a nyomukban császárokkal, hercegekkel és zsoldosokkal kell megküzdenie, akik bármit megtennének azért, hogy megkaparintsanak egy igazságboszorkát. Vajon az eszes Merik herceg mennyire tud a segítségükre lenni? Hagyd, hogy elvarázsoljon!
