A debut kids fantasy from Nicole Austen, BLACK MAGIC will release on August 30, 2022. Pre-order is live now!

BLACK MAGIC (Shadow of the Pack Book 1) by Nicole Austen
The once-powerful and proud Willow River pack is struggling. But when a special litter of pups is born, hope of a bright future returns. Mala, born different, will never be given a chance to prove that she can be anything other than the runt of the litter. Some say her differences may even put the pack at risk. Now, her parents worry how the rest of the pack will react. Will they mistreat her? Will they fear her? But Mala doesn't think she's a threat to anyone, least of all her own family. Before Mala can change the hearts and minds of her pack, she must find out once and for all exactly why she is so different. In her search for the truth, Mala discovers something surprising about her pack and herself. Could she be the one wolf who changes everything? Black Magic starts this exciting duology for ages 8-12, telling the story of a special litter of pups born to the Alpha of Willow River pack.

Soman Chainini, author of The School for Good and Evil series: “BLACK MAGIC is a thrilling tale about survival in the wild. Set in a world that is at once enchanting and dangerous, the story weaves a gripping drama of power, betrayal, and family. The Willow River wolves are real flesh-and-blood characters we care about, and the stakes in their fight for dominance are life and death. Austen’s natural instinct for plot and action make her a wonderful new talent to watch.”

“BLACK MAGIC is a joy to read, especially for those fascinated by wolves. Reading it brought me the same happy feeling I had when I first encountered Watership Down.” —NYT Bestselling Author Thomas Lennon

Shared this Swoon Romance cover reveal this week!

Ethel Klyczek's development stalled in middle school, making her self-conscious and insecure. Aiming for prom perfection, Ethel plans to go from As to Cs, and she doesn’t mean her grades.

Ethel's parents are dead-set against her self-improvement plan. Without their sanction, Ethel will have to do a lot more than sling fried chicken if she’s to get a new set of twins in time for prom.

Extreme fundraising of car washing, cupcake baking, and t-shirt selling start out strong. But as the money rolls in, Ethel’s support system rolls out. Her best friend is sick of her too-busy schedule and preoccupation with her b***s, and her boyfriend is tired of fighting other guys for her attention. With her grades dropping and her family at the breaking point, Ethel plans an epic rager to push past the finish line.

The party is a massive success, but the invite to view her A cups draws a crowd Ethel can’t control. Now, the question isn’t if she can earn the money for the surgery; it’s whether or not she can live with herself when it’s done.

THE SALINE SOLUTION is a quirky and fun story about female empowerment and self love. It includes themes of modern feminism, female body image, and agency.

Here's what reviewers had to say about Book 1, The Magnificent Glass Globe:

“This is The Magic Tree House for a slightly older reader, with a more topical and sophisticated message.”—VOYA Magazine

“This fast-paced adventure featuring three children who are as quick-witted and daring as they are scared and uncertain is a natural for graduates of the Magic Tree House. A pleasant ride that contains charming educational moments, the book delivers the message that there is bravery and power in unity.” —Kirkus Reviews

“An additional purchase recommended for middle graders who fancy travel and readers who appreciate a strong, independent female lead.” —School Library Journal
