Publisher's summary

Hopes. Dreams. And literal nightmares out to kill a young boy.

Gray Lexly, son of a candlemaker, wants to escape his life of old-world technologies and study at the prestigious Astra Academy, a school for arcanists—those who can wield magic. But Gray has a major problem. Every night, as he sleeps, he's visited by monsters. When they injure Gray in his dreams, he wakes with the same wounds in real life . . .

On the night Gray might finally die in his nightmares, he is saved by the kind and mysterious Professor Helmith, a powerful arcanist. She offers to protect Gray and invites him to attend Astra Academy.

Before that can happen, Gray must bond with a mystical creature to become an arcanist himself. Will he bond with a unicorn? A pegasus? A kitsune? Whatever he bonds with will determine his magical abilities, so he must choose wisely.

And when trouble finds Professor Helmith, Gray must become powerful enough to help her and fend off the terrible nightmares, before it's too late . . .

An Exciting Sequel Full of Mystery and Magic!

An incredible sequel that dives even deeper into the world of Astra Academy! This book is filled with magical discoveries, mysterious dangers, and plenty of heart-pounding moments. I loved seeing how the characters grew while facing new challenges. The story takes unexpected turns, making it even more exciting than the first book. The combination of school life and fantasy adventure is perfectly executed. I’m already looking forward to the next book!

Can't wait for more!

A fun follow-up to the first book, more lessons, more flirting, and more cute (not) cat action!

Need the next book already!

I'm not surprised that the master author we all love created this story, with the elements of the old series being brought into this new series it has the potential to even greater than it already is.
My only issue with this book was that Gray is a bit of a jerk towards his brother, I can see it causing a falling out at some point but I genuinely hope Gray accepts his brother for who he is before that happens.
Looking forward to the third book in the series!

Worth the credit, give it a go

I don't really feel like writing anymore reviews, but this author isn't getting the views she deserves. Give the series a shot, it is worth the credit.

So Good

I loved how this story is progressing. Totally different from how I expect it to go, and I love that! The way the characters are growing and interacting with each other helps to build the world, and helps to imagine how life at the Academy would be.

I still get so excited when the OG characters come into play, or when there is a small “hint” at the old story.
