The Council of Amara - Ilyssa Goldsmith - Bog

"I know Desire. I hate her, but in my solace, I still love her." In a world where desire is fashioned as a tool for enchantment, women wage wars with their words. Enter Isla, a strong headed sixteen-year-old girl, who desires to become an enchantress - a wise woman who grants patrons their token of desire with the snap of her fingers and a whimsical word. Enter Sybil, a privileged seventeen-year-old girl, who holds a direct claim to the Council of Amara - the esteemed organization, which rules over enchantresses everywhere. As the trial to become Head of the Council ensues, desire takes root. In this linked collection, stories bleed golden as women fight to reclaim their voices on the page.
