The Fraying of Magic (The Aspects of Magic, Book 1) (Signed Paperback)
Includes bonus story, "The Journal of Ren Daren!"
The Academy says magic is safe. They are wrong.
Vivienne Desai has spent her life in her twin sister’s shadow. Now, at last, she’s earned her place at the Volsung Academy—the most prestigious magical institution of humanity’s Golden Age.
It’s an era of expansion and optimism. Magic was discovered only sixty years ago, and the galaxy believes the future is limitless.
But on her very first night, Vivienne witnesses something the masters insist is impossible: a mage losing their mind. The leadership dismisses it. Students argue it was nothing.
Yet whispers spread through the Academy—of danger, decay, and a creeping force some refuse to acknowledge. Caught between powerful “Deniers” desperate to preserve the status quo and those who fear the truth, Vivienne must navigate hidden factions, dangerous secrets, and fragile politics to uncover what’s really happening.
Because the Golden Age is beginning to crack.
And Vivienne will play a pivotal role in shaping the future of magic… and the Worlds themselves.
