Yenna Bookbinder loves learning magic. As a teacher of the Arcane, she has helped countless students to become mages—yet the world outside her classroom beckons to her.
When a band of adventurers comes through town as part of a grand expedition to parts unknown, she finds herself offered a position on the crew as the party’s mage. Leaving behind her old life for exciting days on the road, Yenna travels with new allies to uncover all manner of magical mysteries.
Between uneasy alliances, ancient dark magic and a plot that threatens to swallow the expedition whole, Yenna Bookbinder’s discoveries may shape the future of magic irrevocably—but will she live to see her findings published?

This is a hidden gem if I ever saw one. The style, characters, worldbuilding... everything in this work of art overflows with both talent, care, and passion.
Definitely a must read!

This book is great.
It contains a fleshed out magic system, and descriptions of how it is intertwined with the workings of the world. The characters are also nicely written, and not the same; their emotions influence their actions - best example is heroine, where her fear is shown in her body language and thougths while not breaking the flow of reading (suspension of disbelief). Beside the magic system, the story also contains other aspects of ingenuity and careful design... but I won't go into details.
I loved the idea of Ledger and his interaction with Fate
The only issue I have is backstory of one of the characters. Other side characters don't have their backstories explored in such detail, and I think only this one have an entire chapter written about them. Despite this, the backstory is excedingly shallow, and feels forced - it has no influence on the actions of the character before, or after this chapter, and I can only surmise it has been written under external influence or to include a tag. It feels like a sudden wall in the flow of the story.
