But she’s spent four long years soaking in the knowledge and becoming an expert in detecting complicated spells, determined to get sponsored by one of the most powerful families in the city to further her ambitions-and her vengeance.Īfter a party trick gone wrong, Ren finds herself taking the public waxways (a type of magical transportation) with a motley group of students, including rich bros Theo and Clyde, her best friend, and two other Lower City misfits.

I wasn’t sure beforehand what it meant (is it like a floating city?), but bonus points to the illustrator because after reading I now know it’s something directly from the book. I love a good miniature model and this looked so spooky and cool. Bonus Factors: Magic, Whodunnit?, DragonsĪnother book that caught my eye and then the synopsis drew me in.
