Love and Shadows: All love casts a shadow. Some never fade
About this ebook
Until he opens his first assignment.
Arabella Flint.
His wife.
His first soul to retrieve.
Shattered, Drusy begs the Grand Reaper — a man who looks human, feels heartbreak, and bleeds star‑sapphires when he cries — to change the rules. But even the King of Death cannot alter a destiny already written.
Desperate to spare Drusy the cruelty of taking his wife in a cold, lonely moment, the Grand Reaper devises a forbidden kindness: a night of beauty before the end. A masked imperial ball. Music that bends worlds. A final dance beneath the Emperor’s watchful eye.
But when Arabella’s time comes, love and duty collide in a quiet library where fate cannot be bargained with. And as Drusy carries her soul through a swirling portal, he discovers that some shadows — the ones cast by love — stretch across universes and never truly fade.
A cosmic romance of grief, loyalty, and impossible choices,
The Magicians: Love and Shadows explores what happens when even Death cannot bear to break a heart.
