Witches’ blade. A. K. Mulford. 2022.

The High King of the North is dead and his don sits the throne. But eighteen-year-old Ruadora Dammacus won’t allow the (frustratingly handsome) head that wears the crown to lie easy.

She is his sworn enemy and a warning, with the immortal Blade at her hip. It is more than a weapon to be wielded in battle. It is an artefact of legends whispered and power untold, and it might be enough to turn back the darkness shadowing the land - for there are rumours rising, of an evil stirring in the north, with a curse on his lips.

With the eyes of her newly found family on her, Rua must prove herself worthy of the Immortal Blade if she is to break the spell over the blue witches.

But the greatest  challenge whe will face is her growing connection to the Northern King and what it could mean for her people……and her heart.
