The Stones of Power Series

"REMEMBER THE LOST …" Tracey Masters is ready to train harder, dig deeper, and get more in touch with the magic that is pulsing inside of her. She has faced the threat of the shadow, and it nearly consumed her. With the help of her family and close friends, Tracey overcame the darkness and now realizes just how hard being a Mage-kind teenager really is. She won't be caught off-guard again. Clawing at the edges of her mind—of her memories—she senses a new evil encroaching. As Tracey sets off in search of the other Stones of Power, she continues to wrestle with questions about her past. Racing to discover who she really is, Tracey must decide how far she is willing to go to protect her family and friends. What cost—what sacrifice—is she willing to pay in order to find herself, locate the other stones, and break an ancient curse that is destroying generations of family history? Painful betrayal, a threat that's too close to home, mind-altering visions, dangerous magic, and a new heartthrob at school all scream for Tracey's attention. But can she trust her own choices, or her memories? What is real, what is fake? Tracey must decide if she can believe in her own magic, and her friends, before everyone she loves is erased from existence. The second book in The Stones of Power series by Laurie Bell doesn't skip a beat, but rushes back into a world filled with mystery, love, adversity, and at the risk of it all, holding on to the truth that life is worth fighting for. "Tracey Masters is the next teen protagonist to get behind! Her adventure is a suspenseful look at growing up and excelling in a world where people like her are feared, controlled, and sometimes hated because they are Mage-kind." Lauren Lynne, author of The Recalcitrant Project "Charming, snappy, and addictive. There's a lot of heart here. You'll immediately be asking for the next book!" D.C. McGannon, best-selling author of the Charlie Sullivan and the Monster Hunters series

"I see how it ends ...I will be alone ..."   The Tiger's Eye is secure, and Timothy is trapped inside the Serpent's Kiss. The shadows of the past finally seem to be behind Tracey Masters.   Hot off the heels of victory, Tracey and her friends waste no time in pursuing a lead on the fourth Stone of Power. However, that lead, her uncle's client, takes them across land and sea, to a mansion from an older age ... the very same that the Sect of Six lived in. When they arrive, the client mysteriously cannot be reached.   Working under the guise of actors on the newest Prince Henry film, Tracey has a limited amount of time on this so-called getaway to find the fourth stone, find out what happened to Uncle Donny's client, and to save her crush's sister, all while avoiding the ire of their at-odds chaperones. No pressure!   If that wasn't worrying enough, the group of Mage-kind and Norm teens are attached by a monstrous entity on their way to England. With Timothy silently locked away in his own Stone of Power, suspicions turn inward, with clues pointing toward the very council that oversees Mage-kind.   Shadows may be in the past, but there is a devil in their midst.   "Tracey Masters is the next teen protagonist to get behind!

“DON’T LET THE SHADOW TOUCH YOU.” Beware! Something is after Tracey Masters, a Mage-kind teen in a mostly non-magical world—a world where people like Tracey are often feared, and oppressed. Add to this stress a crazy family life, the schizo pressures of school, friends, and bullies, and working a boring job as an assistant at her uncle’s detective agency for magical types, and life isn’t just hard, it’s chaos! That is, until a mysterious woman walks through the door with a case about a missing necklace known as the Butterfly Stone. The case seems to be the big break Tracey is looking for to prove herself and her abilities as Mage-kind. But she unexpectedly finds herself dangerously connected to it when the evidence takes a turn that reveals secrets from Tracey’s past, and places her friends and family in mortal danger. She also discovers that she’s being hunted by a shadow that senses her magic is the key to unlocking the power it’s after. The magic within the Butterfly Stone is too powerful to be contained, but if Tracey doesn’t learn how to control it, and escape the threat of the shadow that surrounds it, she could lose everything and everyone she cares about … beginning with her younger sister, Sarah. Laurie Bell’s first young adult novel is fresh, fast-paced, and fun. It’s filled with what makes life interesting, hard, and yet, worth living. You’ll believe in magic again, but you’ll also remember that the magic of family and friendship is where life is best lived. “Tracey Masters is the next teen protagonist to get behind!
