The Way of Threadcasting: (and spinning chaos)

A snarky, spellbinding fantasy for fans of The Magicians, Ninth House, and Studio Ghibli-style whimsy.

Chaos is unraveling. And Kallae is holding the scissors.

In the city of Cargyll, the powerful Order of Threadcasters doesn’t just control magic—they manipulate time itself. But when its sacred Brotherhood begins to vanish without a trace, a dangerous unraveling begins. And something darker is pulling the threads.

Far to the east, on the island of Fujikura, whispers of rebellion stir. There, Sadhrin—ruthless advisor to the Lord of Urwil—has begun abducting threadcasters for purposes no one dares name. Sent to investigate, Brothers Kilie and Kallae arrive expecting secrets. What they find is an empire rotting from within.

As Kallae battles a twisted inquisitor, the ghosts of his past, and the terrifying possibility that his magic may not obey him, the threads of fate pull tighter. The lines between loyalty and treachery, justice and vengeance, begin to fray.

With a magic system rooted in threadwork, fate-weaving, and unraveling time, The Way of Threadcasting is a darkly lyrical fantasy full of:

• Intricate worldbuilding inspired by Japanese folklore

• A fresh, original magic system woven from fabric, fate, and time

• High-stakes intrigue, assassins, rebellions, and ancient Orders

• Island empires, magical corruption, and dangerous divine power

• Flawed, complex characters trying to stitch themselves back together
  

This debut will leave you guessing what’s real, what’s sewn, and what was always meant to be unraveled.
