Max Xylander and the Island of Zumuruud by Jon Thomason
Max has anger management issues. But she has a dangerous secret, too. She can make things happen. Like magic. She almost killed a kid and nearly used it on her stuck up older sister. Can she learn to do anything other than blow things up? And is it really possible that a teenage girl is the key to keeping humanity safe?
Philip just got his ring back. He got it taken away for messing with his teacher’s mind to cheat on a test. Now that he has his ring, he thinks he should be able to use his power to make his life better. But people want him to be responsible. But if you could do magic, wouldn’t you use it to escape work?
Aaron wants to be a soldier. Lots of people would try to take over, and he’s determined to stop them. The problem is that there’s this new girl who might be not be on the right side of things. She’s really talented and pretty, but she might be able to destroy everything. Whatever happens, he needs to be world class with his magic sword while figuring it out.
Brynn never gets out. Her grandfather won’t permit it. Her access to the outside world is magazines, so she has unusual ideas about what to wear. She’s dying to travel. And adopt animals. Is she a lonely future cat granny or are her clothes the next fashion craze?
Max Xylander and the Island of Zumuruud is a fast-paced fantasy adventure for all ages. Fans of magic, swordplay, secret agents, and conspiracies set in a modern everyday world will not be able to put the book down. Jon Thomason paints a vivid world of magic right under our noses and delivers rapid-fire action that keeps the pages turning.
