Inyanga's Star and Other Constellations
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.

Magician scientists discover the secrets of the universe to make the future brighter.

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.
