Truthwitch (Witchlands #1) by Susan Dennard

Truthwitch - 4 Stars

Synopsis

There is an alternate cover edition for this ASIN here.In a continent on the edge of war, two witches hold its fate in their hands.

Young witches Safiya and Iseult have a habit of finding trouble. After clashing with a powerful Guildmaster and his ruthless Bloodwitch bodyguard, the friends are forced to flee their home.

Safi must avoid capture at all costs as she's a rare Truthwitch, able to discern truth from lies. Many would kill for her magic, so Safi must keep it hidden - lest she be used in the struggle between empires. And Iseult's true powers are hidden even from herself.

In a chance encounter at Court, Safi meets Prince Merik and makes him a reluctant ally. However, his help may not slow down the Bloodwitch now hot on the girls' heels. All Safi and Iseult want is their freedom, but danger lies ahead. With war coming, treaties breaking and a magical contagion sweeping the land, the friends will have to fight emperors and mercenaries alike. For some will stop at nothing to get their hands on a Truthwitch


Review

I received with thanks an ARC copy of Truthwitch from Pan Macmillan / Tor and Netgalley.

This is my true and honest review of Truthwitch (Witchlands #1) by Susan Dennard This was published on 12th January 2017.

This is the start of the Witchlands trilogy. This follows two young witches and their journey through a world of society and politics. I loved the world and the magic system. The author has created a fantastical world that is interesting will defiantly be carrying on with the series.

Would recommend if you love a good YA fantasy and if you are fan of Sarah J Maas.
