Why read it?
1 author picked Flesh and Fire as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Wine and magic. Need I say more? No, but I shall anyway: I love wine, complex and delicious and delightful; and I love magic, mysterious and powerful. Laura Anne combines these elements to great effect in her Vineart War series, where spells are crafted from winesāthe only source of magic in the world. It was hard to read this without wanting a glass of pinot noir by my side!
From Shannon's list on authors who care passionately about food and drink.
