Présentation
In the Spain of the Inquisition, Luzia Cotado is a scullion who hides small, instinctive miracles. When her magic is discovered, she is swept up by an ambitious household and forced to compete to become a holy champion at court — a stage where a hidden Jewish heritage and real power could mean death. Leigh Bardugo, author of Ninth House and the Grishaverse, delivers a lush standalone of historical fantasy, romance and danger. The Familiar conjures the menace and glamour of the Spanish Golden Age, with an immortal, enigmatic 'familiar' at the heroine's side. Atmospheric and sharply written, it was one of 2024's most anticipated adult fantasies.
