Alchemist Academy

Allie is done with being a special. But the world of alchemy still needs her to dig up a four-hundred-year-old man for a mother she may not totally trust, then create the stone to end all stones. After that, she's free. Sounds simple enough . . . that is, if she's not used up or dead by the end of the process.

Out from under Verity's thumb, Allie must navigate the streets of LA-a hotbed for dark alchemists-in search for a way to free those they left behind. With Mark and Jackie at her side, they must brave the real, but no less strange, Alchemist Academy. Gaining a few friends, and even more enemies, the trio search for those whole can help them and at the top of the list is Allie's missing mom, Cathy Norton. But will Cathy be anything like the mother she remembers from her childhood? A war between Alchemists is brewing, but what side should even win.

If you are struggling with alcohol and seek answers, then come and join the ever-growing number of people who have transformed their lives the Alcoholic to Alchemist way.

The first in a new series by bestselling author Garrett Robinson. At the age of six, Ebon Drayden discovered he was an alchemist--a wizard who can transform matter with a simple touch. But his father forbade him to use his magic, and kept him from attending the Academy where he could learn to use it. Just before his seventeenth birthday, Ebon's aunt intervenes on his behalf and enrolls him in the Academy. Now at last he has the chance to use the magic he has so desperately yearned to control--yet the learning comes hard, for he has wasted more than half his life squandering his gift. To make matters worse, the darkness of his family name plagues him. The other students are terrified. Teachers regard him with suspicion. And before long, his family begins to draw him into their schemes that span all the nine kingdoms of Underrealm. A dark plot is brewing upon the High King's Seat, and slowly Ebon finds himself being drawn into it. If he is to learn to become an alchemist--indeed, if he is to survive at all--he must cast off his family's black legacy, and become the wizard he was always meant to be. The Academy Journals is a new series set in the world of Underrealm, and a companion series to the Nightblade Epic, hailed as one of the best new sword and sorcery series in years. Your journey begins here. JOIN TENS OF THOUSANDS OF READERS ON AN EPIC ADVENTURE.
