THE JOURNEY BEGINS: SHADOWS ON THE ROAD TO WELLS On her journey to reunite with her beloved Jewel, Skyla is offered a ride by the eccentric and sharp-tongued Lady Hismaela, her quiet servant Sophie, and a cold, enigmatic alchemist named Kaylus. While Lady Hismaela warms up to Skyla, Kaylus regards her with suspicion. Their trip takes an unexpected turn when their carriage breaks down in the Grandes Mountain Range—sabotaged by unknown forces intent on delaying them. To everyone’s shock, the true target is Skyla. But what could a seemingly ordinary innkeeper’s daughter possibly possess that makes her the focus of such deliberate interference?
Good book; good beginning; showing what happened when the witches disappeared, Skyla's adopted father & uncles taking her in & flashback in meeting Jewel, while heading toward Wells to reunite with her 'husband'.
Good book. Introductions of the main characters & rescurring. The beginning of the Magicians rise to power when the witches disappeared & abusing their power. Skyla's beginnings & flashback to how she met Jewel & asked for marriage.
It was very well written and I really liked how the artist drew Skyla, with that mile long hair and intricate clothes. I just wish the men had shorter hair (I dislike long hair on men). It was kind of ambiguous what happened to Aine though, after she killed Amengarde. I wish the author gave us an idea what she did with her life after that.
I also wish there will be a Book Two on Absolute Witch, this time the focus is on the emperor and Anhelina. But overall, it was a good read and I recommend it to anyone who likes magick and romance.
Loved this series! I dont think that It's available in english but if it was then I would buy it all! The main character Skyla seems a little ditzy, and she is just a bit. But she is also smart, determined, strong and has a good since of moral. This is a wonderful Fantasy manga with a lot of humor thrown in. I highly Recommend this series.
