Moonstone Academy: The Hollow Moon

In this sequel to Moonstone Academy, months after Felix freed Sorren from the forbidden tower, a sinister inspector arrives at the school — and the friends must protect the Academy's ancient heart from the Order of the Eclipse.

If you had told Felix Ashwood a year ago that he would be eating breakfast in a hall where enchanted lanterns drifted overhead like sleepy fireflies, he would have checked you for a fever. But here he was — ten years old, halfway through his first year at Moonstone Academy, the secret school of elemental magic, buttering toast while a floating teapot refilled his cup.

Last term, Felix had discovered he carried Void magic — the rarest power of all, the magic of connection and balance. He had used it to free Sorren, a boy who had been sealed inside the forbidden tower for three hundred years. Now that tower glowed silver every night, and Sorren sat beside him at breakfast, arguing about jam.

'Three centuries,' Sorren said, pointing his spoon at Felix, 'and nobody invented anything better than raspberry jam. I checked.' Felix grinned. 'You have been free for three months and that is your big discovery?' But deep down, Felix felt a small itch of worry he could not explain — as if the school itself were holding its breath.
