Max
Xylander and the Island of Zumuruud
Max has anger management issues. But she
has a secret, too. She can make things happen. Like magic. She almost killed a
loser skate punk and nearly used it on her stuck up older sister. The question
is, can she do anything other than blow things up? Can she learn to control it?
And is it really possible that an obscure teenage girl is the key to keeping
all of humanity safe?
Philip just got his ring back. He got it
taken away for messing with his teacher’s mind so he can cheat on a test. Now
that he has his ring, he thinks he should be able to use his power to make his
life better. A lot better. The problem is that people want him to be
responsible. But if you could do magic, wouldn’t you use it to escape work in
any way possible?
Aaron wants to be a soldier. He knows
there are lots of people who would try to take over, and he’s determined to
stop them. The problem is that there’s this new girl. And she might be not be
on the right side of things. She’s really talented and pretty, but she might be
able to destroy everything he believes in. Whatever the case, he knows he needs
to learn to be world class with the magic sword while he figures out what to
do.
Brynn never gets out. Her grandfather
won’t permit it. Her only access to the outside world are high fashion
magazines, so she has an unusual idea what she should wear. She’s dying to get
out and travel. And adopt animals. Any kind of animal. Is she a lonely future
granny with cats or are her ridiculous clothes actually the next fashion craze?
What possible role could she play in the destiny of the world?
