Books like Blood mage by Stephen Aryan
After the Battlemage War, the city of Perizzi struggles to stay sane. Guardian Byrne is called to investigate a chilling string of murders in which victims are stripped of their blood, prompting a desperate hunt for the killer.
Fray, a powerful magic user whose past actions crippled the Guardians, must partner with Byrne to bring the murderer to justice. Together with Choss—a renowned fighter coerced into peacekeeping—and Kayja, a skilled spy, the trio edges toward confronting a threat deeper than the streets: an underworld war that could ignite a massacre and topple two rival dynasties.
Their quest is not only a battle against bloodthirsty violence but also a fight to preserve the fragile peace that barely holds Perizzi together.
