Publisher Description
Fierce witches. Necromancers. Soul reapers. Mysterious dragons. Secret councils. Forbidden alliances. The Under Realm Academy awaits.
Senior year at Under Realm Academy. Perfect, right? Should be, but isn't.
Moira Bloodworth's got a crush on the hottest demon in school—Calder Darkmore. Lucky her, it seems he feels the same way. Cool, right? Nope.
Two problems. Aidan Grimsbane, Calder's best friend, a necromancer, and an all-around jerk of a bully. He's one problem. The other? A secret she's trying to keep hidden and decipher at the same time. A horrible rash between her shoulder blades. Her eyes turning black.
There's only one person who can provide the answer to her problems. Her dead mom. What kind of solution is that. You can't talk to dead people. Unless you know a necromancer. Ugh. Aidan Grimsbane, that same jerk who's trying to keep her from getting to know Calder better.
Caution: Cliffhangers, violence can be found in this series of action-packed fantasy including necromancers, hot dragons, and fierce witches.
Customer Reviews
A great novel for teens
Interesting story from a young author with a vivid imagination that I’ve enjoyed in another novel of hers.
Unfortunately, a couple of things in her writing were distracting: (1) The author appears to use voice recognition software to record her stories, as evidenced by occasional wrong words. This isn’t s bad thing; in fact, it is efficient and smart. However, when using VR you simply have to take the time to edit for accuracy, which she hasn’t done in either of her novels that I’ve read. (2) She overuses the descriptor “snort” which is an ugly, animalistic word that conjures up images of pigs. A word like “sneer” would be preferable. I’m sure she could find other, more appropriate words in a thesaurus.
Went from meh to im ok with this.
At start I figured this was going to be another teenage drama novel, high school setting. Many of these types do not hold my interest. This one ended up doing so and it’s an easy reader. Win/win
Surprisingly good
This book was very refreshing and surprisingly good. I wasn’t expecting to like it as much as I did and I am definitely purchasing the second book. Kudos to the author!
