Broken Spells
by D. W. Moneypenny
To get her biological body back, Mara must save her counterpart and embrace the one thing her mentor Ping has always warned her to reject—magic.
After her consciousness is transferred to an artificial body during a visit to what her brother Sam calls the realm of the robots, Mara travels to the one place where her biological body can be restored—the realm of the Aphotis. There her counterpart, the Mara of that world, has the biomechanical know-how to help.
However, before the procedure can be done, Mara’s counterpart is kidnapped by a coven of magic-wielding fanatics led by a charismatic and powerful leader who blames her for destroying their faith.
To face this new enemy, Mara must learn new magical concepts that – until now – seemed more like fairy tales than the scientific metaphysical principles Ping has taught her.
