Ivy Armstride is a junior mage who has come to realise that her Citadel job is more about bureaucracy than sorcery.
Assigned to the Tower of Jackdaw and Spittlelick - home to ambitious Masters, hopeless apprentices and a seriously confused tiger - Ivy longs for fewer rules and more... magic.
But when a mysterious tree arrives at the Tower just as an important client demands a solution that might break all the rules, Ivy finds herself swept into a web of intrigue more potent than any potion. With deadlines looming and dragons circling, Ivy starts to question if this modern magic business might be more deadly than she thought.
As she uncovers the truth, Ivy discovers that real magic - untamed, unpredictable, and deeply personal - has been waiting for her all along.
Perfect for fans of Terry Pratchett and Jasper Fforde, Modern Magic is a witty and wildly imaginative tale of ambition, enchantment and the quietly rebellious art of doing things your own way.
