The Source of Magic

The mission: Infiltrate the academy of mages to steal a journal from the forbidden archives. The stakes: Everything. I grew up in the Scraps, scavenging abandoned mage tech for parts. That is, until my uncle sold me to a dangerously pretty nobleman -- and he has a different future in mind for me. After faking my way through the entrance exam to reach the floating kingdom of Reverie, my problems are only just beginning. Keeping my secret identity is difficult enough without a suspicious prince following me around; not to mention the jealous rich girl threatening me at every turn. But I know I'm in real trouble when my magic sword begins to talk. If I can survive wearing dresses, demon attacks, backstabbing nobles, and crippling homework, I may discover the source of magic... But if the truth gets out, it could destroy the world.
