The Magician’s Eyes
MG Fantasy
Status: Complete & Shelved
Everyone knows to watch out for Magicians. They’re manipulative, cut-throat-tricksters, and as a newly-orphaned, former kidnapping victim, twelve-year-old Rossi knows danger when she sees it better than most. When she meets an intriguing kaleidoscope-eyed man who holds startling evidence that her parents are alive, he says can tell her where they are in exchange for a bit of “sense.” Rossi agrees with fistfuls of coin, but she’s misunderstood exactly what he meant. Now Rossi is blind, and despite her missing sense of sight, she knows what she saw and that the kaleidoscope-eyed man, a Magician, knows where her parents are.
With her future before her and no way to see it, Rossi must put aside her fears and accept help from Mona, the mysterious daughter of the wealthiest family in Venice, whose information on children inexplicably going blind may be her key to finding the Magician, her parents, and her eyes. As they discover the Magician’s true motives and the disaster it could bring to their world, and those beyond, Rossi’s simple plan to reunite with her parents gets a lot more complicated.
