Spells Gone Bad

Some spells start life evil, others just turn out that way.

In this collection by award-winning writer Annie Reed, meet an evil warlock who crafts his spells in a modern mall, an Old West gunslinger who crosses the wrong wizard, and a water spirit trapped in the heart of a motorcycle. Get to know a diminutive fixer determined to discover why one of her own spells backfired, a devious historian whose airship—not to mention her mechanical uncle—run on more than just steam, and a man who wakes up after an epic party to discover someone turned him into a dog.

These stories and more fill the pages of Spells Gone Bad.
