Fifteen years ago, an enigmatic explosion shook the small Oregon town of Dorena, instigating global shock and an intriguing mystery as the door opened for people worldwide to learn thaumaturgy, a strain of magic. Although the cause of the explosion remains undetermined, thaumaturgy grows into a science in its own right, with lectures offered and degrees awarded in prestigious universities around the globe.
	Lillian is an atypically young physics student at the University of Oregon at Dorena, struggling to balance her intellect with her youthful appearance and grappling to learn the basics of thaumaturgy while those around her seem to thrive. When she receives a pair of mysterious visitors, she is abruptly plunged into the intricate mystery surrounding the explosion, discovering profound secrets about herself with the help of a small group of investigators from the Department for the Investigation of Anomalous Occurrences.
	The investigation leads them to inquire into the unexplained death of a young vagrant while in police custody forty years ago. What Lillian and the DIAO soon uncover could shake the very foundations of thaumaturgy- for the vagrant's look-alike appears to be wrapped up in the mystery.
	As Lillian's path collides with that of the enigmatic vagrant, she is forced to accept the truth about herself- a truth that could shake her place in the universe.All Rights Reserved

Burning Day by _ayah21

Subject 23 has lived and trained in the facility for all her life. It's all she's ever known. So every Subject developing their own special ability-a Gift-is normal. Avoiding the attention of the staff without Gifts, fearing them, hating them, is second-nature. It doesn't help that she herself is the only Ungifted Subject left at the facility. But what isn't normal is that weekly for the past six months, a Subject has been taken from the facility and killed. No one-not the doctors nor the soldiers-can find a clue as to the murderer. When Subject 23's closest friend is taken, she swears vengeance, consumed by rage. But what if she's no match? What if she's taken next? As secrets unfold and 23 is thrust into unimaginable places, she's forced to question all she's believed about Ungifteds-about herself. For the first time, 23 must decide on her own what future she wants, but could it possibly be with other Ungifteds?
