There is a whole world of magic right under our noses, if only people would stop and read. Fourteen-year-old Hazel Munroe finds a word of power in her favorite fantasy book and is whisked away to RUNES Academy, a global sorcery school for young conjuriae. But Hazel is a very rare type of magician who can control all five elements, including animus. Adults around her worry that others will try to use her for political gain, while she is more worried about hurting those in her blast radius. When a book is stolen from the Library, the Academy is thrown into chaos. Hazel and her friends take it upon themselves to find the culprit and bring them to justice, but Hazel is finding it’s hard to trust those closest to her. Before she makes accusations from which she can’t retreat, she needs to figure out who is behind the theft- and fast. From the creative mind of author Livia Bartels, The Conjuriae is a magical adventure both heartwarming and dynamic that will delight book lovers of all ages.
