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

Vinni is in trouble. Not just because she's failing maths or playing second fiddle to a perfect younger sister or pretending not to miss her absent father, but also because she's just found out she's a bona fide witch, and someone is out to kill her before her thirteenth birthday. Her mother isn't talking, but other people are: apparently, it's not a coincidence she was enrolled in her school. Everywhere she turns, another door in the magical community is opened to her; her best friends are magical creatures, disguised as awkward preteens, but unfortunately, so are her enemies.

"Being reunited with your childhood best friend after eight years apart? Sounds like a heart-warming story. Finding out that said best friend is now a complete jerk who's determined to make your life hell? Not so much." Georgie and Connor were once inseparable. Best friends from birth, they did everything together - well, that was until Connor's dad got a once-in-a-lifetime job opportunity and the family was forced to relocate to New York. At age sixteen, Georgie's life is totally different - her main goal being to keep her head down and escape the brutalities of high school with as little emotional scarring as possible. Balancing school, work and her dwindling social life is enough of a challenge, but it's about to get a bit more complicated when her conceited ex-best friend gets thrown into the mix. Maybe friendship should come with an instruction booklet.
