I'm Ivy Hilton, and I screwed up. Big time. One, I'm one of the most powerful wizards in my world, and the next, I'm half-magic, stranded in the mortal realm, and fighting for my life. Why? Because I thought I could outsmart another wizard who's just as stubborn and reckless as I am. Spoiler: I couldn't. Now, the only way to get home is to find some mythical place called the Garden of Stone. Yeah, it sounds made up to me too, but it's my only shot. Oh, and did I mention there are powerful beings-disguised as humans, of course-who want me dead before I can even get close? Fantastic, right? My magic's running low, I've got no allies, and the longer I stay here, the more I realize that maybe this whole mess is way bigger than me. But hey, no pressure. If I fail, it's not just my problem-it's the end of both our worlds. So yeah, no big deal.

Highest rank #73 in fantasy #18 in voodoo #79 in Philosophy There are times when everything around fades and the voice of the past starts dominating the times. When the waves are lurching high to touch the sky. When you feel the eerie presence within you. Something which is trying to drift away, something tearing you apart. Into two different versions of yourself. What would you do? Destroy the other? or would try to understand it? Love will always be by your side guiding you, showing you path giving you strength, enlightening you. At each and every step. You are risking everything. More precious than your breath. More dangerous than bloodwars. More familiar than unfamiliar. What's going to happen when you are going deeper into the past? What revelations are going to bring it down? What magic is working? Will love save the day? Only the Midnight can tell. Only the Archer can understand. Will they be together in the end? What's going to be unmapped? Catch the Underworld train to know everything;)

Before moving to Maile, life was simple. Obey the school rules and you don't get expelled. Don't get expelled and your parents don't send you to live with your Uncle. Don't live with your Uncle and you don't discover your entire maternal family, including your mother, are sorcerers... all except you. After moving to Maile, things got a lot more complicated. Lacking any magic of my own, I was left with one gift - the ability to see a world hidden from ordinary humans. But there's a reason it is called the Curse of Sight; some things are better left unseen. At first, it was fun. Meddling with ancient legends, uncovering dangerous secrets, developing a crush on a supernatural. However, when things begin to spiral downhill, to the point everything you know and love is in jeopardy, it becomes a matter of life and death. |Cover Credit: PittieLau| |DeviantArt: pittieslau|

For the fae, magic is everything: status, power, wealth, honor. For Vera Reite, a fae born with no magic, it is a shameful reminder that she will never amount to anything. Whispers of a fae-killing monster begin to circulate the Moon Court. It lurks in the woods, feeding off the mana of its victims. Those that go missing and find themselves at the mercy of the beast are never seen or heard from again. Fear quickly takes hold of the fae court; it's only a matter of time before their whole world is destroyed by this creature. However, it offers Vera a glimmer of hope. When she learns of it, she ventures into the wood to kill the beast, believing that she will be able to absorb the magic it has stolen. But the woods are as dangerous as the beast, and Vera soon finds herself lost. In a stroke of luck, she comes across an old manor deep in the forest where a strange boy is sealed away. If Vera wishes to slay the beast, she will first have to uncover the secret of the manor and its prisoner before it's too late. 𝐀 𝐟𝐚𝐞 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐦𝐚𝐠𝐢𝐜. 𝐀 𝐩𝐫𝐢𝐬𝐨𝐧𝐞𝐫 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐚 𝐝𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐥𝐲 𝐬𝐞𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐭.

If you ever saw something that you were sure you imagined or heard a sound that no one else did - then you know what it's like to attend a show starring the Novaks. "A magical act so spectacular, it had to be real." An oh so common statement after the Novaks perform. But what if I told you the magic was real? There were no wires, smoke or mirrors... Would you believe me? What if I told you the Novaks weren't a friendly family of magicians, but rather the descendants of the most notorious tribe of criminal sorcerers the underworld has ever seen? Take a trip with the Novaks to the parts of your planet you didn't know existed. Sit in the backseat as they ride through carnage, fight for their freedom, go face to face with their maker and most of all.... 𝓜𝓪𝓴𝓮 𝓜𝓪𝓰𝓲𝓬.

"There is no freedom without justice." Year 3049 on Earth. Times have changed. The world mankind once knew is gone. It is replaced by disorder and chaos when the creatures of all kind reign. Demons, elks, Werewolves, goblings, Dragons, Magicians and many other are here not only to enslave mankind, but to conquer the areas they wish for themselves. For humans their faith was simple; if they stood up against something far more powerful than themselves, they were slaughtered like pigs, or then they fell down on their knees and begged for their lives. A choice made for survival for their race. The war of the continents has settled down after many years, when the areas are very clear. For those who dared to take one step across the line of the Demon Kingdom... were sentenced either to death, or to become a slave. At that time each creature knew that the ruler of half of the world and one of the most powerful creatures living on Earth was the Demon King; Belial. To which was no greater being existing-- or was there? The wrongess, slavery and greed are reigning, but a change is about to happen. Justice is about to be made. Faith, just an ordinary young girl who has experienced the life of a slave. Nobody really know of her, which makes the story even more fascinating as she runs into a Stanger who proves to share same kind of mysteries and secrets hidden underneath. Who knew the gang was about to grow just bigger and get into more trouble? [Interested? Read the first chapter to check the story out!]

~*~*~*~*~*~*~ "Not Long ago, In a Place not far from here, is a planet called Lydian. Lydian was a lot like this weird planet 'Earth'. That is, very similar except for Our magic. Unlike Lydian, Earth's magic died a long time ago, centuries and centuries ago. Whereas Our magic is quite clearly still active, as you are reading this." ~*~*~*~*~*~*~ (Please read my books!
