Among The Hollow (ePub)

Being hollow- devoid of magic-is the absolute worst thing imaginable. Curses stick harder and stronger without anything to buffer the blow. Life becomes one long struggle to flee from the missing power.

Kristin can't run fast enough. There is no safe location to hide. Her past is a curse. Her future is bleak. What she thought was an empty place inside of her is about to launch her into a five-hundred-year-old mystery. If she doesn't crack the curse, she will end up sleeping for eternity-or worse, become a wraith.

Kicked from her home six months early when her sisters reveal they hold magic without her, Kristin is to meet a mysterious uncle while staying clear of curses. That would be easier to do if it wasn't for the pack of werewolves chasing her down, or the pooka that keeps summoning her into a deadly forest. Then there is the uncle that wants her to locate a missing spyglass her birth father created before he turned mad and vanished.

Kristin turns to the one source of help that seems reasonable—a dragon-man. However, he is secretly using her as a cure while he guides her on how to thwart her other opponents. Kristin would feel more confident in her defense if she held magic, but she comes to learn that there is more than one way to connect with power. Not all magic is in the air. The ground runes hold an explosive force too, and might be just what she needs to survive. Unless the ground magic cursed her to begin with.
