Fantasy novels for when epic is too much
Fantasy novels don't always have to be epic.
There. I said it.
If you're like me, you grew up surrounded by Lord of the Rings.
Chosen ones, and a few others, doing Big Things to Save the World.
Don't get me wrong - I was just as much a nerd about these worlds as the next hobbit.
Sometimes, though, we just don't want to dive into an emotionally-wrought, massive story. We want the ordinary - with a bit of magic thrown in. (Because these are fantasy novels, after all.)
Not to say that ordinary can't be emotional. Or world-saving. And we still want world-building, and relationships, and funny moments, and roll-our-eyes moments.
That's a void I'm trying to fill.
Introducing Teaching Magic.
Nyine Hunter's best friend has referred her for a job.
The problem? It's teaching. At a school for the wealthy and well-connected. Not Nyine's typical line of work. Or preferred circle of people. And she's not sure why anyone would think it's a good idea.
But she accepts because it seems like an easy way to make money for a year.
Only there's a lot more to the school than classes.
