Tabitha Greene knows more about magic than most. She might not be able to cast a workable spell to save her life, but she has read every magical tome and text in existence. Or so she thought. But then she hears of another book. A rare volume delineating an even rarer type of magic. A type of magic that just might be Tabitha’s real calling.

Tabitha Greene loves her new life. Working at her uncles’ bookstore, hanging with her friends, cuddling with her dog Houdini. When he allows it. Everything would be perfect. If only she could control her magic. But her bad luck with spells plagues her, setting off random sparks and triggering too many accidents. Her friends support her in her attempts to get it all under control. But her other neighbors around the Square display much less patience with having an actual jinx around. Especially as they plan the biggest party of the year.

He's all wrong for her. So why do his arms feel so right? When shy bookworm Melody daydreamed about her perfect man, "must love books" topped the list. She never dreamed of someone like Gunnar blowing into her neatly alphabetized and indexed world to turn it upside down. Finding out that her one...

Tabitha Greene knows more about magical theory than any witch and most of the wizards of her world. She thrives at research and tweaking the writing of spells to best suit their casters. A lifetime of thinking she possessed no magic forged such skills in her. And she excelled at her chosen craft. Then she learned that the magic she possessed wasn't too weak. It was too powerful. Too uncontrollable. Too forbidden. Basically, it was pure chaos. No, literally, it was pure chaos.

Certainty Bulrush wants to be useful - to the Guild of Mages, to the brother who depends on her, and to anyone else she can help. Unfortunately, her tepid magic hasn't proven much use to anyone. So when Certainty is offered the chance to earn her magehood, she jumps on it. Never mind that the...

Morrie's been arrested on suspicion of murder. Mina knows the Napoleon of Crime is innocent, but how can she prove her favorite con-artist is being stitched-up? Being the spider in the center of a vast criminal web has left Morrie in hot water. His list of enemies is long . . . too long for Mina...

With grudging permission from Heathcliff, Mina Wilde has transformed Nevermore Bookshop. She's running author events, hosting Quoth's art show, and using her creative flair to attract more customers. But when crime writer Danny Sledge is murdered moments before his writing workshop, the bookshop goes from bustling to broke. No one in the village will set foot inside Nevermore.

Mit Heathcliffs widerwilliger Erlaubnis hat Mina Wilde den Nevermore Bookshop umgestaltet.
