Welcome to Legend Valley Academy.

Where monsters and myths from every culture in the world...are real.

Percy Jackson Meets Bollywood in this Young Adult diverse fantasy.

For Mal Jones, Legend Valley Academy is the perfect place to lay low. As the only child of a broke single mom, Mal has been using her magic to make a little cash on the side. So what if it's illegal? But when the police almost bust her, Mal needs an escape—fast.

A magical academy in another freaking *dimension* is the best place to hide. Right?

Wrong.

All she had to do was keep her head down, but not standing out is harder than Mal thought. Turns out, her deadbeat dad is more famous than she knew.

And something horrible is going on at the Academy.

The worst part: Mal is one of the only witnesses…

PRAISE FOR LEGEND VALLEY ACADEMY

Mal is a strong-willed character with big ideas, a lot of personality, and an attitude that makes her funny, charming, and gives her room to grow and evolve. She discovers more to Legend Valley than what's on the surface which becomes a mystery at the root of the story and has her looking deeper at her new home. - Reader's Favorite

★★★★★

"...fully developed, three-dimensional characters with their own backstories and issues. A little bigotry, a little teenage romance, along with friendships - and an excellent storyline - makes this an engrossing read."

★★★★★

"..the integration of not just Hindu mythology, but other mythologies from all over the world, is brilliant. There was obviously a lot of research that went into this series and it shows."
