Wedwood Chronicles

Overview

Twelve-year-old Orin arrives at Wedwood Academy, a hidden school where elemental magic is taught with strict rules and even stricter secrets. Orin struggles to control his rare fire magic, marked by the red streak in his brown hair-an omen others notice even if they pretend not to. At his side is Jax, his sharp-minded best friend, calm, observant, and far more aware of the politics of magic than he lets on. They quickly reconnect with Lia, a quiet, brilliant student whose honesty masks something carefully hidden. As lessons begin and rivalries form, the academy feels uneasy. Strange shadows appear at night. Sirens sound when they shouldn't.
