Description
xShe always felt like an impostor...
First-generation graduate student Dorothe Bartleby has one last chance to pass the Magic program's qualifying exam. If she fails, she'll be kicked out of the university, losing access to higher magic and her chance to prove classic literature contained spells that rebuilt the world.
Still reeling from the paralyzing anxiety that made her freeze on her first attempt, she's horrified when her advisor insists she reframe her entire dissertation using Digimancy. Mages may have found a way to make computers and magic work together, but throw Bartleby into the mix, and nothing ever goes right.
This time is no exception. Her revised working goes horribly wrong, creating a talking skull named Anne that narrates Bartleby's inner thoughts--even the most embarrassing ones--like she's a heroine in a Jane Austen novel.
Facing the scrutiny of her professors, increasingly frequent panic attacks and the impending deadline, Bartleby doubts whether she's fit to become a mage at all. Out of her depth, she recruits James, an unfairly attractive mage candidate, hoping he can help her correct the code and stop Anne's glitches in time for her exam.
Instead, Anne leads them to a shocking and dangerous discovery: Magic students who seek disability accommodations are disappearing--quite literally. When the administration fails to act, Bartleby must learn to trust in her knowledge and skills...and begin to rewrite her own story. Otherwise, she risks losing both the missing students and her future as a mage, permanently.
