Cursed with immortality, Mars goes on a journey with his lifelong more-than-friends partner Astral, a painfully average future-seeing mage, to find the root of magic, in an effort to ease the side effects of Astral's visions - and to finish their thesis so they can graduate from college. *** Mars can't die. He was cursed with immortality as a baby, while the rest of his family died in a housefire, set by 'bad mages'. Or so he was told. Growing up in the magical college, he's taught he isn't a mage - and not a human either. When he and his only friend and confidant, Astral, go on a journey to finish their final thes is for college, they expected everything to go smoothly. But getting around isn't easy when you've got a friend who hates to walk - and who actually isn't a friend but so much more. Complications arises and Mars has to figure out his priorities: finding out the truth about his origins, finding a cure for Astral's seizure-inducing visions, picking up strays and 'adopting' them or finishing their degree.

Shakespeare's Sonnets is the title of a collection of 154 sonnets by William Shakespeare, which covers themes such as the passage of time, love, beauty and mortality. The first 126 sonnets are addressed to a young man; the last 28 to a woman. The sonnets are almost all constructed from three quatrains, which are four-line stanzas, and a final couplet composed in iambic pentameter. This is also the meter used extensively in Shakespeare's plays. The rhyme scheme is abab cdcd efef gg. Sonnets using this scheme are known as Shakespearean sonnets. Often, the beginning of the third quatrain marks the volta ("turn"), or the line in which the mood of the poem shifts, and the poet expresses a revelation or epiphany.
