Description
In the state of Liberty, water is rationed at alarming prices, and paranoia reigns. This unsettling world is home to Eleanor, a young woman learning about her magic through the support of her coven. But being a white witch isn't as easy as it seems, and she's already been placed under 'house arrest' with a letch named Stan, who exists in the form of a cat. Eleanor has no time for Stan's antics, but when another coven approaches her about finding a missing witch linked to the water shortage, she finds herself drawn into a complex web of magic and mystery. As tensions rise, Eleanor must navigate this treacherous landscape with caution - and wit. In "The Splendid City", Karen Heuler crafts a genre-blending tale that explores the darker side of modern society, where paranoia is always lurking and magic is a double-edged sword.
