EDITORS PICK 2020. A new student doesn't think her mother understands how magic works. Inyanga Numbia will be the first in her family to go to Magicians' College, and she's going to find out.

"Why doesn't Magicians' College just let anyone in?"

"Won't they make more money if they accept everyone?"

"If magicians get better jobs, why not send everyone?"

These are the kinds of questions one would expect a bright young applicant to ask - but maybe not the second after receiving her acceptance letter.

The Constellations stories are infinite, with infinite possibilities: Immortal girls at Magicians' College learn the laws of magic are built on a lie. The inventor of time travel wanted more hours in a day in which to read books. A mother chooses to bring a baby into the world, even though it will drain her immortality. Magician scientists discover the secrets of the universe to make the future brighter. 

Apartment hunting to get out of the Shade, Cielo and her esposa find the dream flat, but when they turn up to move in, the unit they signed has vanished.

When transitioning spells become free, Chiara transitions to female and watches all of Soliara try out the gender with her.

A server at a cafe rebels when the boss magician always fails to pay back pay. Bay steals from the till to save up for magic school, but she's addicted to Story, an immersive experience drug, and she'll spend all her solidae to get it.

And more.

A disinherited princess and a kingdom on the verge of ruin. The birth of twins were once a joyous occasion in Vequera but in the year 602 C.E, it was anything but. A first-born daughter with a golden eye and a second-born son. The realm feared what the daughter would be capable of. None knew of her power or what she would do in the future if she became queen, so the throne was given to the second son in hopes he would save their house from possible ruin. Over the course of her life, she was neglected by her mother for being different like the "demons of the west." She began to harden as the years passed her by and the abuse she endured intensified until one day, she snapped, killing someone. The queen sends her away in order to keep the nobles at bay but little did she know that her decision to do so would cause the fall of everything she held dear. The fall of Vequera.

Thank you for reading, and I hope you enjoy! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Have you ever seen the yin yang? The two swirls intertwining, yet never blending? Somehow, it's so tranquilizing, so beautiful. Polar opposites working together to create harmony and beauty. There is no grey line, there is no mixture, there just is.

Striving to outrun memories, she moves to London with a scholarship to Queen Mary University. Rapidly running out of luck, she stumbles upon an old bookshop, the only peaceful place in the entire city. You already know who owns it... Don't you? Sacrifice and loss, disappointment and regret. Growth and rebirth, kindness and love. It all balances out. Something lost, something gained. Will Y/N and her two slightly suspicious new friends make it out unscathed? Doubtful. But what's a story without pain?

Thief and street rat Azura knows how to hustle a man better than she knows how to read. Some skills are far more important than others in the dog-eat-dog world she survives in. She knows Rupteran will only play nice when the Sharlik Empire keels over and dies, which isn't going to be anytime soon with the piss-poor job the rebellion is doing. But when a robbery that could turn her life around goes sour, Azura's sharp wit and blackened heart will be tested. One should be wary before cornering a wounded animal, and that's exactly how the rebellion finds Azura. With her bloody teeth bared and her hackles risen, Azura is ready to bite off the hand they offer her.
