Publisher's summary

"In time, you will realize that you hold more magic than most can fathom."

Sora Moore, a high school student from Miami Beach, Florida, is about to undergo a transformation that defies her wildest imagination. A fox girl with desire magic, granting her the power to manifest her heart's desires...as long as she has the energy to fuel it!

As myths and legends unravel around her, Sora's world is turned upside down. The realm of high school bullies will give way to a sinister and grand mystical world, yet her struggles remain unchanged as she begins to suspect that her life is not what it seems and that deeper layers and secrets lay hidden behind her parents' veiled past.

Sora faces daunting questions. Can she adapt to her new life and confront the profound evils lurking in Miami's shadows? Will she learn to harness her burgeoning magical abilities? Is it possible to mend lost friendships with old companions while forging new bonds with mythical beings?

Despite the challenges ahead, she refuses to cower or retreat, standing tall, determined to master her newly awakened magic and rise to meet whatever trials lay in store. The path ahead is uncertain, but one thing is clear: Sora will need every ounce of her power to emerge victorious.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

Intriguing Story

I found this book to be intriguing but also a little long. I love how the author built up a world that consisted of magic mixed with myth and science fiction. The story is very detailed and full of humor, drama, suspense, and twists. The narration was good and brought the characters to life. I received this book for free upon my request. I am voluntarily leaving my honest and unbiased review here of my own volition.

Mythological and Fun

Overall, I enjoyed this story. While it seemed to start a little slow for me, it did pick up and held my interest. As it picked up, the story built upon itself and became a very interesting plot with various twists and turns. I liked the different voices for the various characters. The mythological theme and adversity faced throughout the story was intriguing and the building up of the self empowerment made for a great plot. The cliff hanger at the end has me wanting to read the next one in the series.

Fun story with interesting characters

There is a wide cast of well designed characters and they are fun and quirky with their own interesting and unique voices that come through in the writing and narration. However, it does feel like the characters are too weak for the power level of the story the author really wants to tell involving universe level secrets. I look forward to seeing how the author bridges the gap between the weakness of the main cast and the overwhelming might of the forces that surround them.

Very enjoyable

A coming of age story for a bullied girl. Our heroine's world is almost shattered when she comes to the crashing revelation (for a teenage girl) that she's not actually the center of the universe and the sole character with a backstory. Her bullies have issues of their own, and with kindness, courage and enough largesse of heart to shown forgiveness, it looks like everyone is about to board the SS Growing Up towards a really interesting future.

Then again, how does that chinese curse goes... yeah, things are gonna get a lot more interesting soon.

I was mildly triggered by some of the bullying, but then again its the almost-standard highschool experience nowadays. Some of the story felt a bit predictable, yet there's only so many ways to write about universal themes. On the other hand, saying 'some' is not the same as saying 'all' or even 'most'. Not at all! I enjoyed the surprises along the weay and oddly enough, find myself hoping the little goblin restaurant has a bright future ahead of itself.

I found the narration adequate, though the male voice actor seems to have been stretched a tiny bit too thin by having to voice too many characters, and sometimes they sound a little bit too similar to one another. Beyond that, it is very enjoyable.

The female voice actress has a truly amazing range since she managed to do even MORE characters and keep them distant, specially considering how oftentimes she had to switch on a dime.
