Rogue Wizard: A Garrison Creek Prequel Novella

By Linda Browne

As an illegal wizard at St. Anselm's Training School for Orphans, Colin lives in constant fear of the Magistrates-the relentless wizard hunters scouring Garrison Creek for people like him. He needs a place to hide, and fast.

The school's elite magi-tech squad offers the perfect camouflage.

But the competition is fierce and Colin's magi-tech skills are ... not great. Worse, he can't always control his wizardry, and it leaves behind a telltale red residue that acts as a beacon for the authorities. With his arch rival, Viola Grundy, also vying for a spot on the squad, time is running out.

When a heated battle with Viola forces Colin to unleash his explosive wizard powers, the Magistrates come to inspect both students for signs of wizardry. Trapped between a rival who knows too much and the hunters who suspect him, Colin must rely on his wits alone to outsmart them all-or risk being drained of his powers and cast out of the Creek forever.
