Imagine a world where magic is industrialized and monetized.
That’s the setting of Foundryside, the first book in a new series by fantasy novelist Robert Jackson Bennett. The story will follow Sancia Grado, a former slave who’s stolen from the four elite, wealthy merchant houses in Tevanne to survive. But then she finds herself in the possession of a powerful magical artifact and in a dangerous situation. In this place where the mechanics of magic mirror our technology, Sancia must confront a threat that could end reality.
Those merchant houses in Tevanne are Company Candiano, Dandolo Chartered, Michiel Body Corporate, and Morsini House. Each has different tenets and motivations for getting ahead. Which house would you be part of? We’re excited to exclusively debut a quiz to help you discover just that!
Which house did you get? I’m Michiel Body Corporate. I’m looking forward to reading the book to see how I feel about that. Be sure to visit the gallery below to see the house symbols!
