The First Draft of the World: A Novel of Quiet Magic
Leo is a quiet boy with a secret. He's invisible at school, but he holds a power that could change reality. When a mysterious magical pen falls into his hands, his life is turned upside down. With every doodle, his drawings come to life-a harmless chalk sun, a runaway pet, a simple house. But when the pen is stolen, his creations go horribly wrong, and what was once a quiet secret becomes a city-wide catastrophe.
Now, Leo must team up with Maya, an unlikely friend, to reclaim the pen and fix the chaos he unleashed. Their quest unearths a hidden war between two powerful artists: the Flicker, a guardian who restores the world's perfect first draft, and the Flux, a destroyer who seeks to remake it in their own image.
Leo thought he was just a kid who found a magical pen. He was wrong. He is the last Flicker, and the fate of reality rests on his artistic vision. But the new holder of the pen, the ruthless Flux, is a master of her craft, creating a masterpiece of beautiful, permanent destruction that no one suspects is a threat.
In a world where magic can be a masterpiece or a weapon, Leo must face his fears and learn to use his power before the world's last line is drawn.
The First Draft of the World is a magical realism adventure perfect for fans of urban fantasy, magical books, and coming-of-age fantasy novels. Dive into a world where every stroke of a pen can change everything.
