Can British magick be saved? Hell yes.
Imagine modern Britain without magick. 
No fae enclaves. No flying chairs. No magick wands. Giddy gods, no unicorns.
Who wants to live in that world? 
Me neither. But with magick on the decline, that's the world we're ending up with.
Meet the Society for Magickal Heritage. Our boss is a disembodied voice. Our headquarters is a sentient house. You could say we've a vested interest in keeping magick alive.
Can a ragtag bunch of magicians, necromancers and fae prevail against inevitable ruin and decline? 
Hell yes. Try and stop us.
First mission? Find the source of a magickal disease that's decimating Britain's troll enclaves - and fix it. Simple.
Or... maybe not. For the only place that might hold the information we need is the ancient and inconveniently lost enclave of Farringale...

Atlantis Academy: The First Element by AutumnKalquist

Five Star Reviews for Atlantis Academy: "Omg this book was amazing I couldn't put it down or stop reading. I carried it with me open on my phone while I did everything just to keep reading. I need more of all of this. Epic story, epic content, epic visuals, just epic. LOVE THIS!" "Once I got into this story, I did not stop reading it. This is a beautiful story about a very awkward girl who is riven with so much pain and angst and yet... this makes her who she is and shapes her into the person she will become. The world she finds herself awakened to is magical and yet filled with the all-too-familiar cliques and tribes of the very human people who inhabit it. One word to describe the story: beautiful!" "The story pulls you headlong to the end and leaves you wanting to shout "No! Not yet!" ...If there were 6 stars, I would have given it that." *** Humanity is one secret society away from extinction. The children of Atlantis use magic to keep us safe. If they make it through the Academy. Hi, I'm Lyric. And I'm kind of a mess. ADHD, that's me. I'm a high school drop-out, late everywhere I go, and one screw-up away from being homeless. I'm a loner, and I like it that way. Who needs friends when you have a Redwood forest nearby? Trees never bully me like the kids did at school. Or get drunk and throw things at my head. After my mom died, I figured life couldn't get much worse. I thought it might even get better. Ha. The universe has a great sense of humor. I should've listened to the rumors about evil spirits. About the angry, ancient magical creatures haunting our small Oregon Coast town. But did I? No. That was my first mistake. And it might be my last. 'Cause now I'm in a battle for my life. A whole new world has opened up... a magical world I don't understand. And the blood in my veins says I belong here. But I have to prove myself to save myself. And when have I ever done that?
Entwined Dimensions : Book 1 of the Eura Trilogy by arielgracefull
24 parts Ongoing
Publishing new chapters Sundays! When parallel dimensions - one of the human experience on Earth, and the other a fae world of lightning-speed tech in harmony with nature - collide, the lines between reality and fantasy blur, making it nearly impossible to decipher the codex shifts that keep these worlds apart. Yet, this collision is not by chance. A consuming light is spreading across Earth, a blinding energy threatening to annihilate the very fabric of existence. Merging the two dimensions is the only way to prevent the field of annihilation from consuming everything, but the Intergalactic Spacetime Alliance believes otherwise, and is bent on keeping dimensions separate. Enter Daria, a human who was supposed to go to the fae dimension and now carries fragmented memories of her time there. These vivid recollections, half-dreams, and half-real, have compelled her to seek out the fae world once more, believing her fate is tied to its secrets. Caelan, an Eura fae from the fast paced life spent his life secretly obsessed with the lost myth of humans' mysteriously forbidden in his dimension. When fate intertwines, Daria and Caelan are thrust into a love story that transcends dimension barriers, where their bond becomes the key to uncovering the truth of reality. But the task ahead is perilous-navigating ancient secrets, decoding shifting realities, and facing a looming megalight that threatens both dimensions. As they come closer to unraveling the mysteries, they must decide if their connection can truly defy the forces of deception tearing their worlds apart. With the fate of Earth hanging in the balance and the fae world's existence tethered to the merging of realities, love may be the only power strong enough to bind what's been separated for millennia. But will it be enough to save both dimensions? Or will this false light consume them all?
The Bound Soul (Seasons of the Cycle Prequel) by aratheonfantasy
13 parts Complete Mature
What are you willing to do to save the ones you love? My name is Lura, and it's a question I need to answer after witnessing my family being forced into slavery. At the time, that answer seemed so simple. I'd do anything to save my family. Anything. Even now, after all, I have been through and endured at the hands of others, the answer still remains the same. I'd do anything for my family, even if it means giving up everything I am, because it is my fault they've been enslaved. It's all my fault. If only I had listened. If only I had done what was right instead of what was easy. Then they'd still be here. Why did I act so selfishly? Because of my actions, those whom I love most have paid the price. That is why I must do whatever it takes to free them. Whatever it takes... Join me on my journey to free my family. The Bound Soul is a small prequel book of the Broken Souls in the Seasons of the Cycle series. It's also included in the Broken Souls novel along with the Damaged Soul, Bothvar's story. The Series is a Dark Fantasy with a bit of romance. It's inspired by Viking culture, but it is in no way an accurate portrayal of historical Viking culture. It takes place within a fantasy world that's heavily influenced by ancient mythology and lore of many different cultures among other things. That being said, this book contains some pretty graphic and controversial topics such as slavery, sexual assault, death, war, violence, blood, mental health, drug addiction, and many other controversial topics.
The Last Knights of Cambria  Book 1: Echoes of Gideon by kullman
16 parts Complete
Gideon Saint is dying for something exciting to happen in his life. With his love of history, he figures an internship at the museum has to be a good start, right? Anything is better than listening to his parents argue or sitting alone in his room doing research no one but him seems to care about. A chance encounter with a magical ring leaves him transported to an alternate version of ancient Wales, or as it was sometimes called, Cambria. 1432 Wales, to be exact. Here magic is the most powerful weapon of all as kings vie for power. Good thing Gideon's teleportation from the present has also left him with the ability to use magic, and he's quickly regarded as a powerful wizard. In this timeline, Wales maintained it's independence, but that's about to change. Henry V is on the throne of the England, and the greatest warrior king England has ever had has set his sights on Wales. Can Gideon help save his newfound friends and master his new powers, while living a double life in the 21st century? Ahem, living people die, dying people live, Henry V is here and he's awesome despite being the main antagonist, everybody is vaguely gay, swords are described in loving detail, people are not, lovely platonic friendships, did we mention swords? Yes, you may learn something about history, but that's a risk you'll have to take. Basically, think of this as a Percy Jackson type of adventure, but it's historical fiction instead of Greek gods. The narrator is 15 and the major supporting characters are 14, 17, and 19. That said, there's nothing in the way of content that's inappropriate for a younger reader. As always if you're not here to go on a fun little adventure find a different story. Trigger/Content: very mild language, some magic violence, fantasy violence. Self-harm is briefly discussed. Adoption issues are discussed as well as brief scenes of a abusive family. Characters briefly mention crushes and or dating, no real innuendos.

While the damage to our friendship was increasingly difficult to manage, I had forgotten the bridge, or the rope, that had brought us together in the first place. Without our empowering bond that holds the magic together, God only knows what'll happen to the spirits, the power and the kingdom our imaginations have created. Our minds are what power it, but when we stop believing in ourselves, each other and the magic, what'll happen to us and everything we've created? Is it too late to save it all?
