Reseña del libro "Shadows of Magic (en Inglés)"
The world is broken, and magic is an exchange of shadows. Finn knows magic is dangerous. He knows it destroyed the world he loved, that it causes madness in those who attempt to wield it. The once great City of Mages is a sealed tomb no one has entered in a century. So, when an ancient power came to him, he resisted. Despite how much he wanted to make his world better, despite everything he thought he could build, despite what his best friend urged, he did what he thought was right. His parents paid the price. Fighting abilities he didn't understand and couldn't control, to avoid a power he never asked for, Finn's control slipped. In the aftermath of a horrible disaster, hunted and on the run with his little sister, Finn knows he has no choice but to learn to control his abilities, and he's determined to prevent the war his mistake ignited, despite being hated by both sides. Taking refuge in the forest, he'll meet an old water mage-no stranger to pitchfork mobs, vigilantes, love triangles and ruthless despots himself-who will make him question everything he thought he knew about the past, and a beautiful wind mage-with a terror of earthquakes, a love of baked goods, and a reckless tendency to learn by throwing herself into spectacularly dangerous situations-who will challenge everything he thought he knew about magic. But they're not there by accident. They're looking for someone, and it isn't Finn, it's his sister. * Kel has always loved the natural world and was most often found in the garden with her hair full of leaves, constructing houses for ladybugs. On the run with her older brother, terrified, wanting to help him but not knowing how, Kel finds a power that's as natural to her as breathing, but it comes with a dilemma. Deep in the forest something is calling to her. Whispering promises of answers about who she is and where she comes from. No one becomes a mage before sixteen. No one until Kel. But Finn needs her. She can't go alone into the woods, leaving him behind to fight his powers and an escalating war. Her past won't wait forever, and soon she'll have to choose.
