Now Francesca is in the middle of a game she doesn\u2019t understand, one that ties her to the notorious rogue wizard, Nicodemus Weal, and brings her face to face with demons, demigods, and a man she thought she\u2019d never see again.<\/p>\n<p>It has been ten years since Nicodemus Weal escaped the Starhaven Academy, where he was considered disabled and useless, where he battled the demon who stole his birthright and killed his friends. Unable to use the magical languages of his own people, Nico has honed his skills in the dark language of the kobolds, readying himself for his next encounter with the demon. But there are complications: his mentor suffers from an incurable curse, his half-sister\u2019s agents are hunting him, and he\u2019s still not sure what part Francesca DeVega will play. He certainly doesn\u2019t know what to make of Francesca herself\u2026.<\/p>\n<p>Introducing new twists to the unique magical system of Spellwright and uncovering more sinister dangers, Spellbound is sure to please Blake Charlton\u2019s fans and earn him new ones.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.blakecharlton.com\/\">Blake Charlton<\/a>&#8216;s a good friend (and reader!) of the blog, so I&#8217;m always excited to hear more about <strong>Spellbound<\/strong>. <strong>Spellwright<\/strong> was a <a href=\"https:\/\/aidanmoher.com\/blog\/2009\/12\/reviews\/review-spellwright-by-blake-charlton\/\">strong debut novel<\/a>, but wasn&#8217;t without its kinks.
