Veiled

REBEL NO MORE Alex Verus is a mage who can see the future, but even he didn‘t see this day coming. He‘s agreed to join the Keepers, the magical police force, to protect his friends from his old master, the Dark mage Richard Drakh. Going legit was always going to be difficult for an outcast like Alex, and there are some Keepers who aren‘t keen to see an ex-Dark mage succeed. Especially when Dark mages are making a play for a seat on the Council, for the first time in history. Alex finally has the law on his side - but trapped between Light and Dark politics, investigating a seedy underworld with ties to the highest of powers, will a badge be enough to save him? Praise for this series: ‘A deft, thrill-ride of an urban fantasy - a stay-up-all-night read‘ Patricia Briggs ‘Harry Dresden would like Alex Verus tremendously - and be a little nervous around him. I just added Benedict Jacka to my must-read list‘ Jim Butcher ‘Whoop-ass excitement from the new master of magical London‘ Charles Stross
