Artezans: The Forgotten Magic by L.D. Lapinski - Teaching resource

Prepare for the magical adventure of your dreams, in the first in a brand-new series by L.D. Lapinski, author of Strangeworlds Travel Agency.

For the last 400 years, magic has been fading…

Edward Crane has always feared he won’t have any magic at all. Sure, he’s part of a powerful magic Artezan family, but he’s adopted. His twin sister, Elodie, isn’t so worried, but then everything always seems to work out perfectly for her.

So when Ed discovers he does have an Artezan power after all, he’s relieved. And it’s more than he ever could have imagined – in fact, it’s a dream come true.

But the problem with dreams is that sometimes they twist themselves into nightmares. And with Ed’s new abilities growing by the day, there’s a chance that this nightmare will become all too real…

‘A stupendous, witty, humane fantasy. Lapinski’s done it again – an inventive, compelling world and characters I would die for. LD Lapinski is a genius!’ – Louie Stowell, author of ‘Loki: A Bad God’s Guide’ series
