內容簡介

內容簡介 紐時暢銷奇幻作家、Uprooted作者Naomi Novik新作一位年輕女巫無意間詛咒了自己的哥哥，現在她必須設法解除這道魔咒。Celia 在她摯愛的大哥Argent離家的那一天，意外發現自己擁有魔法的天賦。她不解哥哥為何拋下她，獨自離開這個飽受戰火摧殘的國度，盛怒之下的Celia說出了傷人的話，卻沒想到那些稚氣未脫、充滿怒意的話語竟帶有預言的力量，讓大哥從此被咒語綑綁，註定無法擁有愛。Argent從此只能在世界各地流浪，追求名聲與榮耀，卻無法得到他真正渴望的愛與歸屬；而Celia則是努力想解除自己當初施下的詛咒。但經過幾十個寒暑，她仍始終找不到破解的方法——直到她發現了一個驚人的真相：原來她的族人與不死的夏之族之間，存在著一場延續數百年的戰爭，而那些夏之族對人類鄰族懷有無止盡的仇恨。 如今，在她那個不情願幫忙的二哥的協助下，Celia也許不但能解除對大哥的詛咒，還能治癒這片因「夏之戰爭」而分裂多時的大地。In this poignant, heartfelt novella from the New York Times bestselling author of Spinning Silver and the Scholomance trilogy, a young witch who has inadvertently cursed her brother to live a life without love must find a way to undo her spell.Celia discovered her talent for magic on the day her beloved oldest brother, Argent, left home. Furious at him for abandoning her in a war-torn land, she lashed out, not realizing her childish, angry words would become imbued with the power of prophecy, dooming him to a life without love.While Argent wanders the world, forced to seek only fame and glory instead of the love and belonging he truly desires, Celia attempts to undo the curse she placed on him. Yet even as she grows from a girl to a woman, she cannot find the solution—until she learns the truth about the centuries-old war between her own people and the summerlings, immortal beings who hold a relentless grudge against their mortal neighbors.Now, with the aid of her unwanted middle brother, Celia may be able to both undo her eldest brother’s curse and heal the lands so long torn apart by the Summer War.
