Truthwitch by Susan Dennard

In the Witchlands, where magic is power and alliances are fragile, Safiya fon Hasstrel is a rare Truthwitch—able to discern truth from lies—a gift that could shift the fate of empires. Alongside her fierce best friend, Iseult, a Threadwitch who can see the invisible ties between people, Safi is drawn into a storm of politics, betrayal, and war. Pursued by princes, assassins, and the deadly Bloodwitch, their friendship becomes both weapon and salvation.

Fast-paced, imaginative, and emotionally charged, Truthwitch launches Susan Dennard’s Witchlands series with breathtaking magic, daring adventure, and the unbreakable bond between two young women destined to change the world.
