I can be your enemy again."Clematis and the Queen of the Void continues the Clem & Wist series with a horror-tinged saga of lovers to enemies (and back again). In this slow-burn f/f romance, devoted partners transform into devious adversaries-but opposition only serves to deepen their bond.The best place to take a mage on vacation: a country without magic. As the most powerful mage in eons, Wist never gets much rest. That's why Clematis drags her to an idyllic town in a land where all magic use has been made strictly illegal.Charmed by the rural scenery and unusual wildlife, they initially find little cause for concern. The townspeople are welcoming, if rather eccentric. No one dwells on old rumors of vanishing mages. Or eerie myths about the local caves.On the third day of their stay, Wist disappears without a trace. Impenetrable walls spring up around town. No one can enter, and no one can leave. The locals begin to whisper of an all-powerful and deeply beloved Queen who has ruled them for as long as anyone can remember. A magical Queen who sounds exactly like Wisteria Shien.For reasons of her own, Wist has trapped the entire town in an eternal autumn. She won't let time move forward, and she won't let anyone escape her. Especially not Clem.Yet Wist-now an invincible tyrant-might not realize that Clem needs neither magic nor allies nor even a sliver of hope to ferociously resist her rule. Truth be told, Clem has always loved having a nemesis.The Clem & Wist SeriesPrequel: No One Else Could Heal HerBook 1: The Lowest Healer and the Highest MageBook 2: The Reverse Healer Case FilesBook 3: Clematis and the Queen of the VoidEach novel revolves around the same couple.

248,95 kr. "I want to see you cry. I want to see you destroyed."No One Else Could Heal Her (a prequel to the Clem & Wist series) marks the contentious beginning of a lifelong f/f romance. Their slow-burn relationship deepens in a stratified magical academy packed with rules designed to keep them apart. They're opposites in every way. Their feelings for each other are stifled, unfamiliar, charged with resentment. And impossible to deny.In this modern-era fantasy world, mages get all the magic and glory. Mages run the nation. Healers shuffle around in their shadow.Clematis is a talented healer. That's what traps her at a prestigious boarding school for high-class mages and the healers being trained to serve them. Her only goal: keep her head down. Pretend to be mediocre. Avoid catching the interest of any mages whatsoever.Tall, dark-haired Wist is a quiet loner, despite being the strongest mage student in the entire academy. She seems just as determined as Clematis to cover up her true gifts. Yet every once in a while, she cracks and shows more glimpses of her power. For some reason, those moments usually have something to do with Clematis.Clematis can't begin to understand why a top-tier mage would try to avoid the spotlight. The sheer infuriating mystery of Wist keeps dragging her in closer. Even if they're supposed to be enemies. Even if it means making herself a target for envious classmates. Even if every step she takes toward Wist puts her at risk of expulsion. Once Clematis would've been thrilled to escape the academy. Now-confronted with a cold, secretive, long-suffering mage unlike any other-she finds herself scrambling for excuses to stay.

Healers are legally required to serve them. As a rebellious-minded healer, Clematis loathes the mageocracy. She only makes an exception for her own mage, Wist, who is difficult to read yet deeply devoted-and who just so happens to be the most powerful magic-user in the entire world.With Wist there to back her up, Clematis discovers new ways to furtively help desperate healers. Yet though Wist's magic remains in high demand, she's still far weaker than she used to be. And her self-sacrificial instincts soon threaten to put her in direct opposition to Clematis.So much for living quietly. Clematis can't use magic. She can't even throw a solid punch. Her only weapons are her wits and dirty tricks. But she'll fight tooth and nail to defend her happy ending. She'll keep fighting no matter who stands in her way-be it Wist's ultra-influential family of mages, international spies and assassins, or even Wist herself.The Clem & Wist SeriesPrequel: No One Else Could Heal HerBook 1: The Lowest Healer and the Highest MageBook 2: The Reverse Healer Case FilesEach novel revolves around the same couple.
