Declared a degenerate, dragonborn mage Alex Dering spent her entire life hiding who she really was—and her father died to protect that secret. Eight years after his death, Alex is finally given the chance to track down the magician responsible for his death. But her revenge is delayed when in London she finds a trace of the Orb of Blood, a magical artifact with the power to control vampires. Taking the Orb from a group of haters won't be easy; It will be even more difficult to destroy their plans to exterminate every supernatural being in the world. On top of that, a mysterious killer is watching Alex's every move, determined to end her life. To survive this, she'll need all her magic, a lot of help from a dangerous ally, and a very large sword. Blood Magic is the second book in the Dragonborn Alexandria urban fantasy series.
