The RUNEBOUND saga presents a world where magic is controlled by the oppressive Kirche, and those who wield it are prized-and feared- as weapons of incalculable power. The second volume, A Tangled Vision, expands on the characters and themes of A Ragged Magic but also explores the political intrigues of the kingdom of Talaria and the Indrani empire.
From the cover:
Rhiannon never asked for power of any kind, but now that she has it the enemies of Talaria keep trying to take it for themselves. Everyone she loves is in danger, and without the king and his advisors on their side, she and Orrin have no way to stop their visions--and the war they presage--from coming true.
Trapped in a realm of intrigues, Rhiannon relies on her family and friends to remind her not only what is real, but what is right. With her power spiraling out of control, the young witch must use every bit of her strength to try and unravel...
