Ink Blood Sister Scribe - By Emma Törzs
By Emma Törzs Genre: Fantasy / Dark Academia / Magical Realism Accolades: International Bestseller, Good Morning America Book Club Pick, Indie Next Pick
Two half‑sisters, separated by fear and fate, are bound by a legacy of magical books—volumes so powerful they can bend the laws of nature, open impossible doors, or destroy the people who dare to use them.
Joanna Kalotay lives in isolation in Vermont, guarding her family’s secret library of enchanted books. Each spellbook demands a price, and Joanna has spent her life studying their dangers, determined to protect what remains of her family.
Esther, her older sister, has spent years running—from the magic that killed their mother, and from the destiny she never wanted. Now living on a remote Antarctic research base, she believes she’s finally escaped the family curse… until a terrifying incident forces her to confront the truth she’s been avoiding.
When their father dies under mysterious circumstances, the sisters are thrust back into each other’s lives. Together with Nicholas, a young man whose bloodline is tied to the creation of these spellbooks, they must unravel a deadly conspiracy hidden within their family’s collection.
As secrets surface and enemies close in, Joanna and Esther discover that the magic they’ve been protecting—and fleeing—may be far more dangerous, far older, and far more alive than they ever imagined.
Richly atmospheric and suspenseful, Ink Blood Sister Scribe is a story of loyalty, betrayal, and the intoxicating pull of forbidden knowledge—perfect for fans of The Magicians, Ninth House, and Practical Magic.
