by Rachel Lawson
In this deeply atmospheric collection of three interlinked stories, Rachel Lawson conjures a universe where necromancers, interstellar ambassadors, and hidden sorcerers navigate danger, deception, and destiny.
At the heart of it all is Jasper—sometimes a goth misfit, sometimes a mysterious diplomat, always more than he seems. As cults stir in the shadows, empires clash in distant star systems, and secrets unravel at masked balls and midnight rescues, Lawson’s signature mix of gothic intrigue, dark humor, and lyrical prose takes center stage.
Perfect for fans of supernatural drama, speculative sci-fi, and character-driven fantasy with emotional depth, The Shadow of the Magician offers a haunting, genre-blending journey across time, space, and the fragile line between reality and illusion.
Rachel Lawson crafts poetic tales of love, loss, and the uncanny. Her stories drift between darkness and dream, where hearts break beautifully and magic lingers long after the last page.
