Jinxed!: The Curious Curse of Cora Bell
(2019)(The first book in the Jinxed series)
A novel by Rebecca McRitchie
From the talented author of Whimsy & Woe comes a series about cora, an orphan who could be magical!
Cora is 11 years old and missing one eye. She lives with an elderly lady named Dot in a room hidden behind a wall. In a crowded, industrial city where everyone looks out for themselves, Cora and Dot hunt and sell rare and exotic things - apple seeds, silver forks, shoe polish. Until one day, Cora finds a few words scribbled on a piece of paper.
She takes it home and says the words aloud. Then two plump, hairy fairies named Tick and Tock crash-land in her path to warn her that she is in terrible danger. Cora has unknowingly summoned a sinister creature known as a Jinx. Jinxes eat magical beings, and once they have a scent, they never forget it. But Cora isn't a magical being...is she?
Quickly, Cora is thrown headfirst into a world filled with magic, necromancers, shape-shifters, enchantresses, fairies, nightwalkers, witches, and giants.
Jinxed! is the beginning of a very exciting magical new series from the talented author of Whimsy & Woe.
Genre: Children's Fiction
