The Spirit Ring by Lois Mcmaster Bujold
In an alternate Renaissance Italy where the church regulates magic and licenses magicians, fiery Fiametta Beneforte wants to be more than her goldsmith-mage father's unpaid apprentice. But when the Duchy of Montefoglia is laid under military and magical siege, she unexpectedly must join with Thur Ochs, a young Swiss miner and foundryman, to tap their skills in both metalwork and necromancy to rescue her father's soul and combat an evil sorcerer. In a perfectly natural manner, Bujold incorporates the concept of magic into this crisply paced, fully developed tale. - Publisher's Weekly Look out for this winner; it excels - The Bookwatch Lois McMaster Bujold was born in 1949, the daughter of an engineering professor at Ohio State University, from whom she picked up her early interest in science fiction.
