Book Description
Read the complete binge-able series I'm Olivia Carter, a covenless witch. Most witches have a coven, not me. For me, the protection a coven offers does not outweigh the risk of being discovered. I've worked odd jobs here and there peddling (mostly) legal potions I brew when I can. But when an opportunity to work for the vampires fell in my lap, I took it. I heal the people they feed on and don't ask too many questions. Less than six months working this gig a girl turns up dead, drained of blood. Of course, I am the first person the police pay a visit to. However, it's not me they want to blame it on. They want my employer. I might want to stay under the radar, but lying about murder is not something I do. Unfortunately, my favorite vampire and best friend has been missing for a week. To find my friend and the real murderer, I'll have to use the magic I've been hiding and hope no one finds out. That won't be easy with a coven of witches tossing fireballs at my head and a persistent detective who might be stalking me. Borrowed Magic is a page-turning urban fantasy with a sassy heroine, vampires that don't sparkle, and magic that's unique and refreshing.

Pages : 432
Book Description
This imaginative new fantasy will charm fans of the Ranger’s Apprentice and Rick Riordan. Denizen Hardwick is an orphan, and his life is, well, normal. Sure, in storybooks orphans are rescued from drudgery when they discover they are a wizard or a warrior or a prophesized king. But this is real life—orphans are just kids without parents. At least that’s what Denizen thought. . . . On a particularly dark night, the gates of Crosscaper Orphanage open to a car that almost growls with power. The car and the man in it retrieve Denizen with the promise of introducing him to a long-lost aunt. But on the ride into the city, they are attacked. Denizen soon learns that monsters can grow out of the shadows. And there is an ancient order of knights who keep them at bay. Denizen has a unique connection to these knights, but everything they tell him feels like a half-truth. If Denizen joins the order, is he fulfilling his destiny, or turning his back on everything his family did to keep him alive?

Book Description
Legacy: Phoenix and the Dark Star is a continuation of the story from Legacy: The Mark of Merlin. In Savannah, Georgia, on Halloween night, the benevolent sorceress Ellen Anderson learns from Andie Cornell (a fifteen-year-old medium) that she had drawn the attention of a sinister wizard from New Orleans who practices an elite type of magic-a type of magic that Ellen has never heard of before. As Ellen puts a plan into motion to defend herself, she meets several individuals who will stand with her when she faces the sinister wizard. Among Ellen's new allies is the eighteen-year-old Seminole shaman and vampire hunter Winona (Winnie) Rivers. Winona and her crew (Riley and Brad) had been sent to Savannah, Georgia to capture and execute two vampires. The two vampires don't feed on humans though; however, Winona has never met a vampire that didn't. When Winona's group, Ellen's group and the two vampires come face to face with one another, Ellen demands irrefutable proof that the two vampires are in fact feeding on humans before she will allow Winona's group to execute them. As a compromise, Winona agrees to let Ellen's group cast the 'Memory Talebearer' spell-a spell that transfers memories from an individual to anyone within range of the spell-on the vampires, and so the two vampires were taken to a secluded location in order to do so. Once there, Winona shares her story about how she had become a vampire hunter. About the Author Gerald Pruett was born and raised in St. Louis. His interest in writing spans many years and is a contributor to Fan-Fiction on the internet. Continually striving to improve his writing, Gerald is currently working on his next project.

Languages : en
Pages : 286
Book Description
After a three-year siege, Lord Kern, the dark mage, is dead. Magic has left Tredare, and life is almost back to normal. For everyone except Maren, that is. Before the siege, an attack by Lord Kern left Maren near death and with a sliver of magic buried deep inside her. Now, for reasons Maren doesn't understand, that magic has been triggered, giving her the ability to "see" the truth: that her world is nothing more than a magical façade; and that the kingdom's hero may not be a hero at all. But this gift of sight comes at a high cost. Maren is in constant pain, and fears her own death is imminent. Plus, no one believes her suspicions that another Dark Mage has risen, and that Tredare may be in just as much danger as it was when Kern was alive. With the country's future in the hands of a man who's vowed revenge on its king, Maren must convince someone else of the truth. Unfortunately, the only person powerful enough to help is also the one man she can't trust; the man she almost married; the man who abandoned her and disappeared for three years: Kern's son. As Tredare crumbles around them, Maren must persuade him to help - before the king is murdered by the very hero he reveres; and before the same magic that gives Maren the gift of sight also takes her life.

Pages : 174
Book Description
So much of magic is still a mystery to the Mountaineers, but there’s one thing they know for certain: What little is left of magic is running out. It’s been over a year since they’ve heard from any of their friends from The Monarch Papers — Martin Rank, Deirdre Green, even the old Basecamp leaders, like Ascender, Endri, and Eaves. Despite the fact that new recruits are pouring into the forum every day, it seems like the Mountaineers are the last bastion of magimystic knowledge in this world. That is, until, a new recruit with connections to the Low finds a mysterious social media campaign called “Search for Magiq.” With time running out, and the magimystic walls hiding them from the world steadily closing in, the Mountaineers take their chances and join the cause. Their search leads them to the Sanctuary, a secret group of adepts and allies that include old faces and new, working together to protect those affected by magic from a threat once thought vanquished. The Silver are back and desperate to possess all that remains of magic. Will the Mountaineers be able to see the Sanctuary to safety before the Silver attack? And what will be lost and found again when the Book of Kings closes forever, and the Book of Briars is born at last? The follow-up to the narrative events of The Ackerly Green Secret Society, The Search for Magiq guides readers into a new age of spellbinding Briarverse adventures, setting the stage for C.J. Bernstein’s long-awaited novel, The Book of Briars.
