Synopsis

Rosaldo has always been an outcast, told to take his pills and stay quiet about the daily events of magic he sees and even dreams of. But what if everything he’s been told is a lie, and everything he’s thought was a crazy hallucination was in fact, true?Rosariel lives in a small town, and repeats to herself she's content living small. When she finds out her twin brother, Rosaldo, has gone missing, her life turns upside down. Rosariel searches for her brother, ending up in a journey she didn’t even know existed.When the twins are reunited at the Order’s Academia for Mancers, dark secrets seek to control them, and the siblings don't know who to trust— except each other. This is a love letter to all the influences that inspired me for this story. I wanted to make my own take of Lev Grossman's The Magicians set in a whimsical curiousness like Harry Potter but make it more mature, grimdark even like Supernatural.  The fiction is for Adults to Young Adults. I plan to have it contain substance abuse, violence, sex, mature themes and mental health issues. It can get get pretty dark from here. If you'd like to read the prequel trilogy based on the twins' father, his story is Urban Legends.
