Rust in the Root
Justina Ireland
In a 1937 America divided by access to mystical arts, Laura Black leaves Pennsylvania for New York City hoping to gain a mage license and become a baker. With little money left, she accepts a government apprenticeship under Skylark of the Colored Auxiliary. Government policy favors industrial Mechomancy over nature-based Dynamism. Renamed Peregrine, Laura joins a mission to Ohio’s Deep Blight Zone, where destructive forces and white supremacists threaten the country’s fragile recovery.
