Mad Magic is a beautifully dark and rich Young Adult fantasy from Nicole Conway, bestselling author of the Dragonrider Chronicles.

Josie Barton is a high school student living in terror. Invisible creatures torment her everywhere she goes, constantly getting her into trouble at school, and even haunting her apartment. But just when Josie thinks things couldn't get any worse . . . she meets the guy from across the hall.

Zeph Clemmont is a changeling with enemies in all the worst places, fighting to undo a curse that threatens to end his life. Survival means he will have to swallow his pride and trust Josie with all his darkest secrets.

With the help of a gun-slinging shaman and the enigmatic Prince of Nightmares, Zeph and Josie are only a heartbeat away from defeating one of the most diabolical faerie villains their world has ever known.

“What does the faerie language sound like?”

Eldrick’s tense, furrowed brow went slack. His expression became

as serene and blissful as the cool surface of the moon. “Music,” he

breathed the word as though it were ecstasy.

“You mean like the chimes?” I knew that sound well.

He nodded slowly. “Ages ago, some called it the music of the

spheres. Your father possessed an exquisitely intimate knowledge of

spellsongs. He could hear the tones and translate the harmonics into

the human language.” We paused at a corner, letting a few bicyclers

pass on the sidewalk. “To be perfectly frank, I’m impressed he was

able to do such a thing. The details of our language, particularly the

ancient spellsongs that comprise spellwork, are difficult for even an

elder fae to discern. I’ve never seen so many texts about us in the

human language before.”

My head spun with questions as I tried to keep up with Eldrick’s

long strides. “What’s a spellsong? And what does it have to do with

spellwork?”

“A spellsong is, as you described it, the chimes. The use of magic

of any kind has a unique sound. A song, if you will.”
