But when Tim and Abi decide to fake a photo of a ghost to frighten an unpopular school friend, they set in motion a deadly and terrifying chain of events.

A simple promise I made to myself after escaping a brutal childhood of abuse and being trained to enact violence on unblessed witches. Since that moment, I've managed to survive on the streets by successfully pickpocketing. Unfortunately, after years of hiding, the monster who stars in all my nightmares is closer than ever, and I'm faced with only one option—to seek refuge at the Dark Imaginarium Academy. The Academy is filled with the elite witches of our society. I should have expected I'd run into some of my previous targets. Normally, that wouldn't be a proble—except for my last hit.

Pubertät ist schlimm. Klar. Aber nicht so schlimm wie: Alterspubertät! Alterspubertierende sind angegraute, bequeme, oft kurzsichtige Wesen, die die Ruhe lieben, das Wandern, das Wort "früher" und bestuhlte Pop-Konzerte. Männliche Alterspubertierende zwängen ihren runden Ü45-Körper in Neoprenanzüge und beginnen einen Kitesurf-Lehrgang. Andere laufen Marathon. Weibliche Alterspubertierende flüchten sich gern in die Spiritualität und "wollen sich neu entdecken". Oder Marmelade einkochen. Klingt scheußlich? Ist es auch.

"On Schooling and the Phases of Mr. Sandsome" by H. G. Wells is a short essay. H. G. Wells once different, humorous social satire and ironic. I do not know if you remember your "dates." Indeed, I do not know if anyone does. My own memory is of a bridge; like that bridge of Goldsmith's, standing firm and clear on its hither piers and then passing into a cloud.
