The Foxglove King - Summary

A heart-stopping epic fantasy debut following Lore, a survivor with the outlawed ability to manipulate the dead. When a job goes wrong, she's forced by the Sainted King to use her magic to investigate a devastating plague or face execution. She must navigate court intrigue, forbidden magic, and complex relationships that could reshape history.

Key Themes

1

The Seductive Nature of Power

The novel explores the intoxicating allure and corrupting influence of power in its various forms โ€“ political, magical, and social. Lore grapples with her own growing power, torn between her desire for control and the potential consequences of wielding such a dangerous gift.

2

Navigating Love and Loyalty in a World of Deceit

Trust is a luxury Lore can ill afford in the gilded cage of the royal court. Surrounded by ambitious nobles and whispering courtiers, she must decipher friend from foe while grappling with her burgeoning feelings for both the King and his enigmatic brother.

3

The Duality of Life and Death

Death magic is a taboo, feared and reviled in equal measure. Lore's affinity for it sets her apart, marking her as both a weapon and an abomination. As she delves deeper into the plague's origins, she uncovers a profound connection between life and death.
