A Forbidden Alchemy Book by Stacey McEwan

A Forbidden Alchemy is a 2025 romantasy novel by Australian author Stacey McEwan, the first book in The Artisan Trilogy, focusing on a class war driven by a secret about magical abilities. The story follows Nina Harrow and Patrick Colson, who are taken from their poor mining towns to the wealthy Belavere City to test for magical potential. They discover a secret: the magic-wielding “Artisans” are not born with their powers but are selectively chosen through a rigged system. They part ways, only to meet years later on opposite sides of a brewing revolution, where they must navigate their developing romance, loyalties, and betrayals amidst a violent class conflict.
