Behind its walls, the Convent of Sweet Mercy has trained young girls to hone their skills for centuries. In Mystic Class, Novice Nona Grey has begun to learn the secrets of the universe. But so often even the deepest truths just make our choices harder. Before she leaves the convent, Nona must choose which order to dedicate herself to - and whether her path will lead to a life of prayer and service or one of the blade and the fist.

All that stands between her and these choices are the pride of a thwarted assassin, the designs of a would-be empress wielding the Inquisition like a knife, and the vengeance of the empire's richest lord.

As the world narrows around her, and her enemies attack her through the system she is sworn to, Nona must find her own path despite the competing pulls of friendship, revenge, ambition, and loyalty.

And in all this only one thing is certain: there will be blood.


Mark Lawrence was born in Champaign-Urbana, Illinois, to British parents but moved to the UK at the age of one. After earning a PhD in mathematics at Imperial College London, he went back to the US to work on a variety of research projects, including the “Star Wars” missile-defense program. Since returning to the UK, he has worked mainly on image processing and decision/reasoning theory. He never had any ambition to be a writer, so he was very surprised when a half-hearted attempt to find an agent turned into a global publishing deal overnight. His first trilogy, The Broken Empire, has been universally acclaimed as a groundbreaking work of fantasy, and both Emperor of Thorns and The Liar’s Key have won the David Gemmell Legend Award for best fantasy novel. Mark is married, with four children, and lives in Bristol.

神秘的修女和刺客

在“甜蜜慈悲修道院”里，几个世纪以来，修女们一直在教导年轻女孩如何提升自己的能力。在“神秘课程”中，新晋修女诺娜·格雷开始探索宇宙的奥秘。然而，往往最深刻的真理反而会让我们做出更艰难的选择。在离开修道院之前，诺娜必须决定自己应该效忠于哪个修会——是选择过上祈祷与服务的生活，还是选择拿起剑与拳头去战斗。

阻碍她做出这些选择的，有那些被挫败的刺客的怨恨，有那些企图利用宗教审判权来达到自己目的的女皇的阴谋，还有帝国最富有之人的复仇之心。当世界逐渐变得狭小起来，当她的敌人通过她所效忠的体系对她发起攻击时，诺娜必须在友谊、复仇、野心与忠诚之间找到属于自己的道路。

而在这一切之中，只有一件事是确定的：必然会有鲜血流淌。
