A sharp, funny fantasy that proves magic isn’t the real problem—family is. Malachite Moon blends humor, heart, and chaos into a story that invites young readers in and keeps them turning pages.
When your grandmother’s magic fizzles, and your dragon-cat eats forbidden cookies—what’s a girl to do but accidentally break a curse?
Kara Midthorn is is trying to survive high school, keep her grandmother from burning down the apartment (again), and stop her two-pound Pygmy Draaline, Zabi, from snacking on magical delicacies. But when an oozing box, a memory-challenged witch, and a boy who hasn’t bathed since the last century crash into her life, Kara’s “normal” gets tossed out the window—right along with the gnome dung.
Now, with the city’s magic on the fritz and her own mysterious powers making her the hottest gossip since the last royal scandal, Kara’s stuck dodging cranky faeries, and awkward family secrets. The only thing standing between her and total magical meltdown? A snarky, time-lost boy named Milo, a talking lizard-cat, and a plan as shaky as a pixie on espresso.
Full of banter, magical mishaps, and unexpected friendships, Malachite Moon is a whirlwind for anyone who loves wild wit, and found-family chaos.
Ready for a fantasy where the most dangerous thing isn’t the magic—it’s your family’s recipe for disaster?
