Summary

Read by the incredible Natalie Naudus and the winner of the Storytrade 2024 Award for Fantasy, this book is sure to delight!
In The Sermon of Loss, power is gifted by food, its use tightly controlled by the Masked Ones, state sorcerers who never show their faces – and pay an enormous price as they slowly starve to death, unable to eat the foods they once burned for magic.
The story follows Teros, a gifted young magician attempting to keep himself free of the palace. Unfortunately, the High Priest is determined to capture him and sends 732, his most lethal magician, in pursuit. 732 has spent her life in service of the crown, taken from her family at five years old. But as she catches up to Teros, she’ll be forced to reckon with the basin’s secrets as well as her own.
This well-constructed magic system will captivate new readers and fans of JH Tomen alike. Step into the adventure and discover the secrets of this sacred city.
