Tribute - Tapa blanda

Sinopsis

A fallen storm-witch. A devil’s school beneath a black lake. Three days to outrun the past—or be consumed by it.

In 1984 West Germany, Ilena Firan rents weather by the hour and drowns her ghosts in cheap vodka. Once the most gifted ice-worker to walk the halls of the Scholomance, she now hustles rain on cabbage fields—until a raven sealed by the Master arrives. Convocation is calling every graduate back to Lake Cincis for oaths, reckonings, and a Black Moon lottery that chooses who will feed the school its next candidates. Miss it, and the Hunters come. Attend, and Ilena must face the one person she swore she’d never see again: Alexi, the storm made flesh—the lover who returned from graduation as the Devil’s Tribute, his enforcer, blade, and silence. Eight years later, his eyes are colder, his scars run deeper, and when their magic brushes, storms remember their mirrors and ice remembers lightning.

At the lake, power thrums beneath stone and water while graduates trade favors under watchful eyes. Then the sky splits: an ancient dragon descends in thunder, and its call drags every magician to their knees. One will bond; most who try will die. Whispers say only ice and lightning can survive the choosing. An edict says they must not try. Between a dragon’s lure, a Devil’s law, and a lottery that won’t wait, Ilena must decide whether to risk everything on a truth she isn’t ready to name—or let the past finish what it started.

From smoke-stained Berlin nights to drowned corridors under a mountain, Tribute is a razor-edged dark fantasy of second chances and debts that always come due—where love is a liability, power keeps score, and the Black Moon demands an answer.

Perfect for readers who love Leigh Bardugo, Naomi Novik, and V.E. Schwab.
