From the author of The Death Wizard Chronicles comes an award-winning coming-of-age adventure perfect for teens, adults, and anyone who's ever felt different. Do You Believe in Magic? is Book 1 of the Dark Circles trilogy-a heartfelt, humorous, high-stakes fantasy brimming with courage, discovery, and wonder.

Charlie Magus is 13, lonely, and too often the victim of bullies. His only refuge is the quiet forest behind his new home-until he finds a strange waterfall shimmering with otherworldly light. There, he is transported to a spectacular magical realm filled with strange creatures, ancient secrets, and powers he never dreamed he possessed.

For the first time, Charlie isn't a misfit-he's a wizard.

But magic has awakened something dark. A monstrous villain is rising, and Charlie might be the only one with the gift to stop him. With the help of unexpected allies, he must find his voice, face his fears, and uncover the hero within.

Perfect for fans of J.K. Rowling, Neil Gaiman, and Brandon Sanderson, this uplifting fantasy tale blends heart, humor, and adventure into a story that will stay with readers long after the last page.
