Poison Study is definitely one of my new favourite books. It has magic, intrigue, and struggle.

Yelena goes from being in a dungen awaiting her execution for murder to being given a chance to live by the Commander's assasin, Valek. Yelena takes the chance to live by becoming the new food taster for the Commander. While risking her life tasting dangerous poisons just to meet other dangers from Brazell, the father to the person she killed and also one of the Commanders Captains of his 5th military district. It seems Yelena goes from one near death experience to another as she encounters a master magician, a feared person in Ixia. Will Yelena's mysterious survival instinct save her or will she be captured, killed, or tortured?

This book kept me hanging at every chapter. I could not put it down.

If you like forbidden magic, a woman facing her fears and discovering who she is twisted with humor you will love Poison Study!!
