Monsters, Mayhem & Wild Magic: Book 1 of the Hexed and Hunted Series

In the hidden corners of a world vibrating with dangerous volatility, nineteen-year-old Silas Thorne just wants to survive the day without his burgeoning magical talent incinerating his surroundings. Being trans in a society that fears the unpredictable nature of wild magic is hard enough, but for Silas, the stakes are elevated by an uncontrollable flare of power that makes him a target for both the Inquisition and the shadowy creatures prowling the city streets. When a routine job goes spectacularly wrong, Silas is thrust into an uneasy alliance with a disgraced monster hunter and a rogue arcanist. To stop a brewing catastrophe that threatens to tear the fabric of reality apart, this mismatched trio must navigate a landscape of crumbling ancient ruins, lethal enchantments, and their own past traumas. Noah Bodie crafts a high-stakes adventure where identity is the ultimate source of strength. As Silas learns to stop suppressing the raw magic within him and starts wielding it as a weapon, he discovers that the monsters under his bed are nothing compared to the secrets hidden by those in power. Fast-paced and deeply heart-felt, this is a tale of finding one’s voice in a world screaming for silence.
