A new teen fantasy adventure series from bestselling author Connie Glynn, with hidden powers, budding romance and dark magic...
Astrid glanced up at the looming manor house with all its spires and creeping ivy. A refuge, or just another cage?
Astrid and Jonas have only ever had each other. As twins, they share a bond. But they also share something doctors have called twisted and demonic their entire lives: flowers whisper instructions, trees sing of their histories. The siblings are kept away from nature by their caretakers, but it still calls to them.
Meanwhile, Gwen knows all about the shadow world of Bloom Bloods – people living among us who have magic running through their veins. They act under the instruction of the Queen, conserving fantastical creatures and studying the ancient melodies of magic to keep the mundane and mystic worlds in harmony. But Gwen failed her application to Fountains Abbey, the school that trains up the next generation of Bloom Bloods, and she is now determined to prove her worth.
A mysterious evil is spreading throughout the world; unnatural monsters are appearing in unlikely places – monsters that weave discordant magic. When the twins and Gwen collide, their unique abilities are revealed. But will their combined powers be enough to stop what’s rising in the darkness?

Connie Glynn lives in London with three charming but mischievous cats. She studied film at the University of Sussex where she started her YouTube channel ‘Noodlerella’, which amassed over a million followers across social platforms. She has since parted ways with the pink-haired alter ego, but has kept her whimsical approach to life and the search for magic in the everyday. In her spare time, she can usually be found rewatching golden-age Disney movies or taking long naps outside with a book over her face.
You can find her on YouTube at Connie Glynn for video essays and pop culture content, and on Instagram and TikTok at @ConnieGlynn.
