The Licanius Trilogy
James Islington · 3 novels · 2014–2019
Twenty years after a war that toppled the god-like Augurs and stripped magic from the world, James Islington's Licanius Trilogy follows Davian, a young man bound by laws written to suppress the powers the Augurs once had, who discovers he can still reach forbidden abilities. His awakening coincides with the stirring of an ancient enemy and the appearance of an amnesiac stranger whose fate is bound to his. The three books trace how the old war's cover-up starts to unravel.
