Mystic and rider by sharon shinn6/7/2023 ![]() Accompanying her is a motley band of magic-users and warriors including Tayse, first among the King’s Riders-who holds a hard view of mystics in general, and Senneth in particular.īut as the unlikely allies venture farther into the south, they will face death in a land under the sway of a fanatical cult that would purge Gillengaria of all magic users. So he dispatches the mystic Senneth to assess the threat throughout the realm. The King knows there are those in the noble Twelve Houses who could use this growing dissent to overthrow him. It is whispered that he issued the decree because his new wife used her magic powers to ensnare him… In the south, hostility toward magic and its users has risen to a dangerous level, though King Baryn has ordered that such mystics are to be tolerated. It’s also a favorite book of mine in general, so I was happy it got picked for this month! Why I nominated this for book club: I was looking for books that were about a journey, and this is definitely one of them.
