Hybrid
Magic
by
Cristy L. Bowlin
Genre:
YA Fantasy
Two
nations joined peacefully as one, but a band of assassins lurks in
the shadows.
Magic
isn’t uncommon in the Deravine Commonwealth, where people can be
gifted with the faculties of combat, healing, transformation, or
sight. Yet as a hybrid mage, Aaron Ztrong’s abilities aren’t so
easily categorized. He managed to save his parents during a dangerous
confrontation when he was only a young boy, and now a decade later
most people in his life expect him to do remarkable things with his
powers. Then there are those who fear what Aaron and others like him
can do. When Aaron’s life is threatened by a group calling
themselves the Defenders, he takes refuge with two other hybrid mages
and the teacher who is training them to enhance their abilities. As
the Defenders continue to hunt down hybrid mages, Aaron and his new
companions must find a way to survive.

I love the concept of the book. Acceptance of difference is hard for some people.
ReplyDeleteThank you! Sadly it is hard for some people, and that is the source of so many problems in our world. I hope stories like mine can do their small part to celebrate differences.
