About this listen
It's Homecoming season at Caiman University, and all 17-year-old Malik Baron wants to do is be a regular college student…or as regular as he can get at a magical HBCU for young, Black Conjurers. He’s ready to go to parties, hang out with his new friends, choose a major, and talk to girls. Instead, he's reeling from a summer of revelations, heartbreak and betrayal, and still uncovering the truth about his powers and his legacy.
The family he only just discovered is already fractured beyond repair, and a new relative who shows up on his doorstep brings even more questions. Then there’s the mother he risked everything to find, who might be the biggest threat to the life he's trying to build. To protect his new community, Malik joins an elite secret society with roots in ancient magic.
His journey takes him even deeper into his own heritage and the history of the magical world, while bringing him closer to a classmate whose friendship might mean something more, if Malik is ready to let her in. But how can he use powers he can’t even control to defend a world he’s not sure will ever fully accept him? And as the pressure and danger builds, will he be able to confront the deepening cracks within the magical society, and those building within himself?
Critic Reviews
“This thrilling sequel lives up to its promise....The novel's smooth integration of action and introspection keep the pages turning, and threads of romance, family, history, and personal integrity come together, well, rather magically. A great pick for fans of magic school stories.” —Common Sense Media
"A story as magically cool as it is emotionally heated." —Kirkus Reviews
"Williams emphasizes heartfelt messages about the importance of Black men’s mental health and fostering a queer-inclusive community....A cliff-hanger ending ensures that readers will return to Caiman University in a heartbeat." —Booklist
