The harder the head, the harder it is to get out of.
The expedition was supposed to be a formality, sent to debunk wild rumors of a gryphon colony appearing in Oestrephys seemingly from nowhere. It was obviously impossible—mages the world over knew gryphons had been extinct for centuries. Returning to the ancient Collegium Arcanum with a viable gryphon egg? Not even worth considering the possibility.
Sunny certainly didn't. She knows horses, and only went on the expedition because there was nobody else. Now she's being asked to overturn her whole life, change her career, disappoint her mother… a year from graduation. In secret. Alone. Who would help her, anyway?
Her best friend Raen is the only albino mage in Oestrephys and the Collegium's only remaining Lore student. She's used to being alone—and often goes out of her way to keep it like that. History is for other people to make! But Sunny is the one person she simply can't say no to, so whether helping her means digging into a heretofore unknown version of the past or even… going outside''' it may be up to someone obsessed with history to determine the future--and not only her own.
With lives in the balance, graduation looming and the Collegium's reputation on the line, it would be a terrible time for Sunny and Raen's long-smoldering feelings for each other to become undeniable...
Beneath the Shell is a sweet, new adult sapphic romantasy that's part of the Alumita fantasy lesbian romance anthology. Though they can be read in any order, the author recommends doing so in the order they released.
Genre: Fantasy
