I'd Like to think I was a good person, before it all began. I didn't cheat on tests, or steal. But throughout my entire life, I was treated if I were a monster. At the age of five, after several agonizing tests, I was diagnosed with Reactive Attachment Disorder. But not even that title could describe just how strange I was. When another kid got hurt, I would cry. Whenever someone else was told a funny joke, I would laugh hysterically. People looked at me as if I were crazy- and for while I agreed with them. That was until I, Caddie Jones, was exiled to Nox Haven Academy, a school for truly special kids. Not the mentally ill, psychotic kind of special but the magical kind. Like witches, vampires, fairies and werewolves. Call me crazy if you want, you wouldn't be the first. But the stories are all true. The supernatural did exist and I was one of them. Life there was cool until suddenly, I was faced with two-faced witches, egotistical princes, hormone driven werewolves, and an army of evil warlocks who were threatening to destroy the world. ... Maybe Nox Haven was a school for psychos after all. ---------------------------------------------------------- Highest Rank: #2 in Paranormal 1st Place winner of The Night Shift's Killer Competition 4/10/16 Illustration by: Stephanie Pitino (www.ClairObscur.fr) (1st book in series)

There are three steps: First, the blood test. Second, the aptitude trials. And then, third, the changing. ....... The year is 2080. Flying cars do not exist and much to everyone's disappointment, commercial air travel to the moon remains a dream. Ravaged by a nuclear war which nearly destroyed the planet, the human race is now struggling to return to some sense of of normalcy. Particularly since the war illuminated one truth which had been hidden in the shadows for centuries: the monsters from their childhood nightmares were real and seeking vengeance. Witches. Vampires. Werewolves. Fae. These four supernatural creatures became known as Others (other than human). Or, other than everything Ophelia "Phe" Macintyre had known about life. For Phe, life in Darwin Montana was painfully simple- a never ending cycle of boring tasks. That cycle, however, would be disrupted on her 16th birthday where she, like all teenagers now, must prove her humanity to the government by partaking in the "Process." "Can you pass the blood test?" "Would you be able to survive the Aptitude Trials?" "And who will you become once you've completed the Changing?" -------------- Highest Rankings: #11 in Paranormal #9 in Demons #3 in Witches #1 in Faeries Cover by: @YursaUsman95

🏆 Historia original ganadora de los premios Wattys 2018 en la categoría "Agentes de cambio". Dicen que la anestesia es como los aviones: normalmente son lo más seguro del mundo, pero de vez en cuando, uno que otro falla. ―Vamos a contar del diez al cero. Adelante ―me dice, como varias veces―. Diez, nueve... cuenta conmigo, Andrés. ―Diez, nueve... ―mi voz grave se torna acuosa; frágil―. Ocho... siete, seis, cinco... No paso del cinco. Es como un preludio al triste final. Un camino que recorres, a pesar de que ya sabes cómo acabará. Una densa neblina negra obstruye mis pensamientos, dejándome, de nuevo, en completa oscuridad. Cinco.
