“This queer urban YA fantasy will appeal to fans of Holly Black.” The Guardian
A spellbinding fantasy where the romance is as real as the magic – discover your next YA obsession with this love story to raise the dead, for fans of Wicked, Juno Dawson and Lex Croucher.
At Demdike College of Witchcraft, Orlando is an outcast. Not just for being the only shapeshifter in a college of witches. Not just for being a really bad shapeshifter, with no control over their magic or when their body switches between male and female forms. But because their girlfriend Elizabeth died – and it was Lando’s fault.
And then charming new boy Bastian arrives with a proposition: he knows a spell that can raise Elizabeth from the dead. It’s dangerous, but Lando will try anything. But as Lando’s attraction to Bastian grows, questions start to arise. Who is Bastian? What does he really want? And who will survive the resurrection spell?
“Wise, brilliantly written, and full of humour and heart – I loved it.” Sophie Keetch, author of Morgan Is My Name
