The Shadow Army Trilogy by M.A. Nichols is a departure from her Regency romances, offering a fantasy story with shadow magic, war, and darker themes. Starting with Smoke and Shadow (2016), the series includes The Drogue, Blood Magic (2019), and A Dark Destiny (2019).
The series follows characters caught up in a conflict involving shadow forces and the magic needed to combat them. It shows a different side of Nichols’s writing, one focused on action and world-building rather than ballrooms and courtships.
