Ich bin alles andere als begeistert, als das Bundesamt für Magie einen Ausbilder schickt, um sicherzustellen, dass meine Fähigkeiten auf dem neuesten Stand sind.

Als sich ein unheimlicher Nebel über die Stadt legt, reagieren die Einwohner auf sonderbare Weise. Das bedeutet Überstunden für Chief Fox und die örtlichen Polizeikräfte.

If the dragons don't kill you, the deadlines will. At the Tower of Jackdaw and Spittlelick, magic isn't wild or romantic. It's regulated, audited, and buried under paperwork. Ivy Armstride is a junior mage trying to survive a workplace where spells misfire, mentors are eccentric at best, and...

I’m a shifter with a checkered past and sticky fingers. I like my new life. I’ve got good friends, cheap barbecue, and weekly karaoke. Sure, I live in an apartment with more deadbolts than functioning windows. And yeah, I earn just enough tips as a mediocre bartender to buy name brand ramen noodles. But I can be as flamboyant and fun as I want—as long as I keep my hands clean. When a mysterious stranger strolls into my bar with tales of a magical dagger so rare it’s guaranteed to start a bidding war, that itch is back. One last heist…for old times’ sake. At least, that’s what I tell myself.

Turns out bath bombs are actually magical portals. Or at least, in the hands of Master Mage Declan, they became portals. Even he’s not sure why. Said magical portal connects to Ross’s bath tub. Which means this is also now the Unholy Trifecta’s problem because Ross absolutely refuses to deal with portal magic by himself. Thanks muchly.

Being summoned to protect a burger joint from a monster, teach a class at the magic academy, or dealing with film critic cats, is something Rico is almost used to at this point.

Rico’s gathered his allies, amassed powerful magic, and prepared in every way he can think of, but will it be enough?

Being an angel sucks. Well, a low-ranking angel, that is. Who'd have thought that one of the tasks in Heaven assigned to those not blessed with brain-melting power is shoveling unicorn poop? Not me, that's for sure, although I don't even remember who I was as a human before being turned into an...

It seems like a lifetime ago that Thedeim was a mortal man. After a fatal accident, he was transported to a strange realm to begin again as a living low-level dungeon. But he didn't stay small for long. With a powerful will, he built his dungeon self into a force to be reckoned with, full of minions, creepy crawlies, and a hedge maze to die for. Except Thedeim isn't a place where delvers die. He's a different, friendlier kind of dungeon, which suits both him and his many allies just fine. But being a nice dungeon means taking on some not-so-nice entities.

Being a newly minted demon with some shiny black wings of my own should be a dream come true. I mean, I'm back in Hell, I've got power, I'm not a lowly human anymore, this could be the start to happily ever after with my boo Azazel! If only it weren't for that little snag . . . that Lucifer...

I was using my magic to track down my missing son, Tristan, when one wrong teleport sent my sisters and me careening into 1996 Seattle. Think grunge, frosted lip gloss, and dial-up internet slower than my mother's telekinesis. Oh, and our magic? Bound tighter than a scrunchie on prom night. But now that I'm here, maybe I can stop Tristan's disappearance before it ever happens. Sure, one wrong move could unravel everything I know, but what kind of mother would I be if I didn't try?

Theo had thought that after saving the city of Rosewind (again…) he would finally be done with all his adventuring nonsense. Sadly, the universe had a different opinion. Stretched between organizing the most spectacular wedding the world has ever seen and being a reluctant participant in a mage tower contest, the dungeon must shuffle between magic, city planning, and petty politics in order to maintain its cover.
