The Marvellers by Dhonielle Clayton
4.0
Do you have fans in your house of Nevermoor, The Unwanteds and Amari and the Night Brothers? Maybe you’re a fan too. Here’s a new middle grade series to add to your stack: The Marvellers (Marvellerverse #1) by Dhonielle Clayton.
From the publisher: “Author Dhonielle Clayton makes her middle-grade debut with a fantasy adventure set in a global magic school in the sky.
Eleven-year-old Ella Durand is the first Conjuror to attend the Arcanum Training Institute, where Marvellers from all around the world come together to practice their cultural arts. Ella knows some people mistrust her Conjuror magic, often deemed "bad and unnatural," but she's eager to make a good impression—and, hopefully, some friends. Just as Ella begins to find her way at school, a notorious criminal escapes from prison, supposedly with Conjurors’ help. Worse, her favorite teacher Masterji Thakur never returns from a research trip, and only Ella seems concerned about his disappearance.”
I loved everything about this so much! Magic, friendship, a school in the sky…you name it! I couldn’t wait to find out what happened and read it so quickly. Enjoy!
