Valken Paperback William a Hainline 822 pagina's

In the kingdom of Avanthia, power is a thing inherited - by kings, by lords, by the the ancient Wizards of Thetanonica and the Builders who were but are now gone, all of whom have spent centuries perfecting arts that lesser men call either politics or magic -- sometimes both. Valken has inherited nothing. She is a farmer's daughter, scarred and capable, who has never asked the world for more than a clean sickle and a fair night's work.Then she finds the spiral in the grain - glowing faintly blue, geometrically perfect, pressed into the moonwheat as though by hands that do not belong to this age - and the world stops being fair.What follows will take her from the silver fields she has always known to the living stone and crystal towers of Thetanonica, where the Guild of Wizards is fracturing from within, and a Lord in light-swallowing robes is quietly remaking the city in his own image. She will meet a clockwork unicorn with an unsettling grasp of probability. She will touch a Tesseract - one of the eleven magical domains that govern all things - and feel it touch her back.She will begin to wonder why the spiral appeared to her, specifically.She will not like the answer. Everyone will remember her for what comes after. Valken is an epic fantasy of inheritance, power, and the danger of being exactly who you were always meant to be.
