Publisher Description

They survived mancers. They survived monsters. They survived the Storm.

 

With the mountains behind them and Illredus on the horizon, they thought the hardest part of the journey over.

 

They were wrong.

 

Outlawed and on the run, Lyss struggles to control her new and volatile magic. A magic that will destroy her.

 

Her only hope: Find the last remaining witch to tame it.

 

Her only clue: Buried in Illredus. City of mancers. Capital of the Empire.

 

Together, she and Skaar descend into Illredus' underbelly and discover a warren of illegal magics and the monstrous legacy Lyss' father left behind.

 

As truth, loyalties, and magic clash, Lyss must decide how far she'll go to exact justice in her father's name…

 

And how far she'll fall to rule the power inside her once and for all.

“I really had no idea what to expect going into this but I found the premise to be intriguing. Ultimately, I was pleasantly surprised by this book and the level of world building in it. I really enjoyed delving into the different layers of the world and slowly learning about the politics and different types of magic. I also thought it was a pretty mature book with mature themes, which I always like. Overall, I thought that there was a lot of chemistry between the two main characters, I liked their banter back and forth a lot. I would definitely recommend this book to fantasy fans, it was dark and gritty with very fascinating world building. * UPDATE * I'm finally posting my review here well after a year of having first read it, and this story has still really stuck with me. Highly highly recommend and I'm desperate for any news about a sequel!”
“When I pick up a book I’m expecting an immersive adventure, an escape, somewhere to get away from the world. This book gave me just that. The beautiful writing style and beautiful world I stepped into gave me such an adventure and such a vivid experience that can only be shared by reading the words yourself! What a GREAT read! HIGHLY recommend to everyoneee! Perfect the lover of Sarah J. Mass TOG series and fantasy lovers! Thank you to NetGalley and The Parliament House Publishing for access to this ARC in exchange for an honest review!”
“This took a long time for me to get through and I could not connect with the MC. The author has created a very interesting magic system. Nikky has also crafted a very unique magical world that has philosophical tones in regards to man and monsters, good vs evil. I personally was not as engrossed to the story, but that being said, there is something very special to this world, writing and plot, that I think this will capture quite a few readers' hearts Thank you to NetGalley and Independent Publishers Group for this eARC in exchange for an honest review.”
“The Rarkyn’s Familiar is perfect for fans of Leigh Bardugo, Sarah J. Mass, and Miyazaki. Intricate magic systems, dynamic characters, action packed scenes, and fascinating bonds will draw you in and leave you wanting more. The elegant prose and cinematic world building are incredible and not to be missed! I can’t wait for the next book in the trilogy!”
