Unmaking Percy

Twenty-year-old Percy Freel grew up being told he is the chosen one, only to discover that he is, in fact, the chosen one’s assistant.

When he is summoned to accompany the true chosen one on his quests, Percy is determined to hate both Evans and his trusted nanny-turned-squire, Valeria. In their adventures, they confront sorcerers and break curses in sleep-steeped castles and music-filled manors – though the subjects of the curses are not always the victims they seem at first.

As they travel, Percy learns more of magic: from gaps, as plain as the gaps between hair strands or tree rings, or as elusive as the breath between sleep and wakefulness. He also grows closer to Evans, infuriatingly truthful and kind.

When their quests become more perilous, and under the unsetting watch of a powerful noble from the royal court, a strangeness starts to build within Percy. As he tries to navigate his lost sense of purpose, the tangle of his feelings for Evans, and new friendships that make him question old truths, he begins to scratch at secrets that conceal a wider, dangerous gap.
