A seamstress who stitches magic into clothing finds herself torn between loyalty to her brother and her secret love for a nobleman in this debut fantasy inspired by the French Revolution.

In a time of revolution, everyone must take a side.

Sophie, a dressmaker and charm caster, has lifted her family out of poverty with a hard-won reputation for beautiful ball gowns and discreetly embroideredspells. A commission from the royal family could secure her future -- and thrust her into a dangerous new world.

Revolution is brewing. As Sophie's brother, Kristos, rises to prominence in the growing anti-monarchist movement, it is only a matter of time before their fortunes collide.

When the unrest erupts into violence, she and Kristos are drawn into a deadly magical plot. Sophie is torn -- between her family and her future. Epickie Fantasy Historyczne Magia i miecz Sensacja i przygoda

A beautifully written (and very well narrated), out-of-the ordinary fantasy novel, with fascinating and highly current politics, 'tasteful romance', an innovative magic system (yes, it can still be done) and one of the best protagonists in recent memory. Torn works well as a standalone novel, but I'm nevertheless excited to find out where the story goes in future entries.

I love Moira Quirk, but she couldn't save a narrative that is all about "some of the nobles are nice and like me, so the revolutions is bad even though I am part of the badly oppressed class (but i'm one of the good ones who made it out so why would i care anyway)"

revolution is bag you guys
