"CONTROL THE MAGIC, CONTROL THE WORLD In the Raverran Empire, magic is scarce and those born with power are strictly controlled -- taken as children and conscripted into the Falcon Army. Zaira has lived her life on the streets to avoid this fate, hiding her mage-mark and thieving to survive. But hers is a rare and dangerous magic, one that threatens the entire empire. Lady Amalia Cornaro was never meant to be a Falconer. Heiress and scholar, she was born into a treacherous world of political machinations. But fate has bound the heir and the mage. And as war looms on the horizon, a single spark could turn their city into a pyre. The Tethered Mage is the first novel in a spellbinding new fantasy series"--… (mehr)

Thank you to Melissa Caruso, Orbit Books, and NetGalley for this free honest reviewer copy of "The Tethered Mage."

I really wanted to love this book so much more than I ended up loving it. The synopsis was so catchy and interesting, bu the book started and I found it dry and plodding. There were a lot of world building details in the first half, but they felt like they slowed the book down more than flushed out scenery and history. ( )

I'm not going to finish reading this book, even though it's well written, because it just isn't for me at this point in my life. Luckily it's successful without me, it's got plenty of fans! ( )

YA fantasy(which I had a lot of duds for this year) that I truly enjoyed reading.

The story is "loosely" based in a 1600's Venice like quality atmosphere. There is court and political intrigue, magic (quite the inventive system, I must say!) budding romances and lots of characters you can learn to love. Many of these characters are strong women, which is always a huge plus for me.

This is a trilogy and I will move onto the second book at some point.

For those of you who like YA Fantasy, I do believe this is worth a look. ( )

Lovely read

Beautifully written, fast paced, and just plain fun. I don't read very many political fantasies but I found this very engaging from start to finish. Probably helps that it is in first person; i think political sff novels are often better served by being in first person. ( )
