Mage's Blood by David Hair

Set in a world where two continents are connected by a magical bridge that appears every twelve years, the story unfolds amidst political intrigue, cultural clashes, and the looming threat of war. As the bridge's reappearance draws near, tensions rise between the technologically advanced West and the magic-wielding East. Key characters, including a young mage, a determined princess, and a conflicted soldier, navigate their destinies against a backdrop of prophecy and power struggles. With the fate of their worlds hanging in the balance, alliances are tested, secrets are revealed, and the true cost of ambition is laid bare.
