In a bustling town where expectations weigh heavy and adulthood feels like an ill-fitting cloak, Sithu lives quietly, embracing a world of her own making. A whimsical soul with a heart full of stories, she drifts between the mundane and the fantastical, retreating into her imagination when reality feels too harsh. In a life where she can never quite relate to what it means to "grow up," Sithu discovers that perhaps there's more to her daydreams than just idle fantasy.

Inspired by the magic of Narnia, this is a tale of quiet rebellion, of finding the courage to stay childlike in a world that demands otherwise-and of what happens when the fantastical becomes real.

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?

When Jay's trip to prison is derailed, he finds himself with two fellow outcasts. The life they build together is repeatedly threatened by forces that become more and more difficult to overcome. To protect that he now loves, Jay must master magic. The problem? He must learn how to be a woman in a world where such struggles are never spoken about, and where there is no way to know you aren't alone within them.
