Join Maria Linwood in conversation with Adeline Teoh as they explore Maria’s latest epic fantasy novel, 'Mistress of Blood and Shadow'.


Return to the dark world of Sàgilorc, where a creeping Gloom, long-buried secrets and dangerous legacies threaten everything. Follow Tábala and her allies on a perilous quest where every step comes at a cost and not everyone may return.
