‘Les Mis’ Meets ‘A Darker Shade of Magic’ in Gruenke’s Dark YA Fantasy

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Flux, an imprint of North Star Editions, Inc. (NSE) is excited to announce the May 26, 2020 release of Of Silver and Shadow by Jennifer Gruenke. Of Silver and Shadow is a young adult fantasy novel about Ren Kolins, a magic wielder in hiding, who strikes a deal with a broody rebel plotting to overthrow the tyrant king, while king’s guard member Adley Farre hunts down the rebels one by one.

More about Of Silver and Shadow:
Ren Kolins is a silver wielder—a dangerous thing to be in the kingdom of Erdis, where magic has been outlawed for a century. And Ren is just trying to survive, sticking to a life of petty thievery, card games, and pit fighting to get by. But when a wealthy rebel leader discovers her secret, he offers her a fortune to join his revolution. The caveat: she won’t see a single coin until they overthrow the King.

Behind the castle walls, a brutal group of warriors known as the King’s Children is engaged in a competition: the first to find the rebel leader will be made King’s Fang, the right hand of the King of Erdis. Adley Farre is hunting down the rebels one by one, torturing her way to Ren and the rebel leader, and the coveted King’s Fang title.

But time is running out for all of them, including the youngest Prince of Erdis, who finds himself pulled into the rebellion. Political tensions have reached a boiling point, and Ren and the rebels must take the throne before war breaks out—that is if Adley doesn’t capture them first.
