The Magnificent Death of Mira Meadows by Nadia Jovie What if you died and slipped into another world? Mira Meadows never thought she’d end up dead at thirty-three, but…here she is. Trouble is, here isn’t at all what she expected. She didn’t go to heaven or hell – she went somewhere else entirely. Turns out, Mira is a Traveler, a lost soul, who tripped into the mysterious world of Pontos. And if she can just follow the rules – which include parading her Earthly memories in front of a panel of judges and resisting the temptation to mess with magic – she might have a chance at getting back to her real life. Too bad Mira has never been good at following rules. After running into some old enemies (and some long-lost friends) from her time on Earth, she quickly finds herself in trouble – pursued by a murderous (yet strangely charming) gangster, at odds with an oppressive government, and dangerously close to a secret that could result in her exile to an island full of dragons. Who knew dying could be so exhausting? A delightful, magical page-turner from start to finish, The Magnificent Death of Mira Meadows is a remarkable story about the love that follows us – even after death. Get your copy today and get ready for a new kind of afterlife. |

Sixteen-year-old Taro lost his right leg years ago, but with a family to support, he doesn't let it slow him down.

When an absurdly well-paying job comes up, Taro is quick to volunteer. Mathan wants him to break a powerful sorceress out of her magical prison, but her cell is under the control of an ancient military order called the Magisterium. To get to her, Taro must pose as a Magisterium recruit. The courses are grueling, the tests drive students mad, and the magic they teach can be as deadly to the caster as it is to the target. |
