For the first time in Russian! We present one of the most anticipated books of the year, Kayleigh Cassidy's novel "Blood of the Drowning", which opens the exciting series "Siren Magician". This dark fantasy about a king tormented by a sense of duty and a siren struggling with her monstrous nature is a story that will not leave fans of romantic fantasy and slowburners indifferent. A lavish celebration has been arranged in honor of Imogen's wedding. She is being married off by the king himself. The groom, a brave captain, successfully hunts the bloodthirsty sirens, who are considered monsters on this island, and the monster, as you know, awaits only death. The smell of the sea, bursting into the throne room, excites all of Imogen's senses. Dark magic is in the air, and a strange thirst grows inside the heroine. Tormented by her, she goes out onto the fortress wall and meets a handsome, audacious stranger who claims to know her... Followed by a series of terrible events and metamorphoses that reveal the secret of Imogen's origin. She is forced to flee, and a stranger, who turns out to be the ruler of the neighboring kingdom, Theodore, offers her help — but in exchange for one mysterious condition. Cornered, she sets sail with him through waters teeming with undead. He is driven by duty, she is driven by fear, and both struggle to overcome a passionate and possibly fatal attraction to each other. Forbidden love against the background of dangerous adventures creates incredible tension. Imogen knows that she is being hunted, and the only way to defeat the monster is to turn into it herself... At this moment, the heroine's main dilemma is revealed: accept her nature or fight it to the end. The struggle with fate, inner demons and sacrifice for love become the key themes of the novel. The flagship of the Sirena Mag series in its original design is intended for:• fans of dark fantasy with elements of magical realism;• fans of romantic literature with dramatic intensity;• connoisseurs of slowburners — slow development of relationships against the background of epic events; • fans of fantasy adventures with a deep study of the world;• readers who love strong female characters and morally ambiguous characters. Kayleigh Cassidy's novel immerses you in an atmosphere of dark magic, where:• Royal intrigues side by side with ancient curses;• Sea magic is intertwined with blood ties;• a sense of duty opposes an all-consuming passion;• Monsters can be kinder than humans, and heroes can carry monsters inside themselves. "Blood of the Drowning" is an exciting beginning to a new fantasy series that sets the tone for the entire cycle. For the first time in Russian, you can immerse yourself in a world where love and danger go hand in hand, and transformation can be both a curse and a salvation.
