Description
A forbidden spell. A school built on lies. A dropout who was never supposed to matter.
Randy Wolf is fourteen, wand-skilled, sarcastic... and a total failure. At least, that’s what the legendary Madkey School decided when it kicked him out after six disastrous weeks.
Now he’s stuck working as a lowly kitchen staffer. While real students soar through the cavernous dining halls on floating chairs, Randy is forced to keep his own volatile magic suppressed.
Randy’s miserable life goes from bad to deadly when he stumbles across a professor trapped in an unnatural, magical coma—the victim of a forbidden spell no modern magician should be able to cast.
Determined to uncover the truth, Randy forms an uneasy alliance with the only kids the school ignores more than him: three fellow dropouts. There’s brilliant-but-anxious Piper; Leandra, a rogue inventor who refuses to follow the curriculum; and Tad, an eccentric historian who knows the school's dead-ends, forgotten passageways, and buried secrets better than the teachers do.
Their search leads them deep within the school's twisting internal architecture, where they uncover hidden chambers, erased histories, and a conspiracy that proves the oppressive Madkey system isn't just broken—it’s built on a lie.
For years, the school has been secretly controlled by the ruthless architect of that lie. And the only people who can free it are the ones it already threw away.
Perfect for fans of Nevermoor, Keeper of the Lost Cities, and Amari and the Night Brothers, Destroying Magic is a fast-paced middle-grade fantasy thriller filled with dangerous secrets, impossible architecture, and underdogs determined to fight back.
