Of Light and the Dark Within

By Ashleigh J Iline

For fans of Deborah Harkness's A Discovery of Witches and Leigh Bardugo's Ninth House, the Of the Wicked and Broken series is a tense, atmospheric urban fantasy about alchemy, trust, and the dangerous cost of power.

. .

Josephine Malik is the last living memory crawler.

They've decimated Underwood's plans, but in his shadow lurks a deadlier, more ruthless leader- a man who won't hesitate to watch the world burn if it means he can remake it in his image.

Jo must master her terrifying new abilities and her feelings for the dangerously enigmatic Kaius Keller before his wrath comes for them. Divided, they fall. Together, united... they might just survive.

. .

Of Light and the Dark Within is the second book in the Of the Wicked and Broken series, perfect for readers who love political intrigue, found family, and slow-burn fantasy threaded with psychological tension.
