About the book

Did you think necromancers were gloomy and boring? Then we simply haven’t met yet! Allow me to introduce myself — Adele Black. My mother calls me a "walking disaster." Because everything I touch turns out… just a little bit wrong. I applied to the Battle Mage Department and somehow ended up with the necromancers. Tried to sneak into the dean’s office through a window — landed in the curator’s bedroom instead. Was running from my ex and… Well, I’d better start from the beginning. So, my name is Adele Black, and I’m the most hopeless necromancer in the history of the Academy of Magical Arts and Prophecies.

    It seems that Adele can find herself "some kind of adventure" everywhere, starting with the unexpected gift of necromancy)) But perhaps her ex-fiancé Ryan is not the biggest problem yet (good thing she overheard the conversation about "her planned future," which is why he's an ex)... There are definitely more adventures ahead...

    The beginning is captivating) The first meeting of Adel with Tai, the "cheerful" first practical session at the cemetery) And something bad is happening in the town, and it’s somehow connected to the death of Adel’s dad..

    For Adel, whose magic awakened at 15, it turned out to be a talent or gift for necromancy. What awaits the girl within the walls of the magic academy during her studies with such a gift, she must learn to control.

    Frankly speaking, for a girl, the faculty of martial arts is a bit... unusual. Not to mention when it comes to necromancers! Well, this is not like brewing potions. But Adele doesn’t look for easy paths!

    To enroll in the Academy farthest from the capital, to find out that you’re a necromancer, not a combat mage, and to meet the dream of every girl, your former fiancé? This is fate, I believe!

    Perhaps someone considers Adele a walking disaster, but still, she is incredibly lucky. She accidentally overheard a conversation between her almost father-in-law and someone mysterious, and poof - no more rose-colored glasses about her fiancé's true intentions. A monster almost killed her - but Tyran came to the rescue just in time, and by the way, for the second time that day! And even the fact that she will have to study at night (new curator's decree!) works in her favor, keeping her away from Rein!

    Adel is unlucky, always getting into something, no wonder she's called a "walking disaster." An interesting and funny story. Thank you.

    An incredibly interesting and captivating story of "a bit unlucky" Adele. And how can one not recall the classic saying "what doesn't kill us makes us stronger," since that's exactly how one can perceive all the troubles that just keep pouring down on her head?

    A very interesting book about unlucky Adele. Something is always happening to her. She wanted to enroll as a combat mage, but ended up with the necromancers. And then she ran into her ex! Could this be fate? Thank you

    Good day. The story is just amazing. A new development in the necromancer storyline. Commendable. Very well-thought-out, full of intrigue, and most importantly, dark humor. Pleasant characters, descriptions, events, and a bit of detective elements. Overall, masterfully done. Nothing unnecessary, and everyone is in their place. The story deserves attention and adaptation. And to you, I wish an easy pen, an ocean of inspiration, and a universe of imagination. Your fan, Amphira Vayson.
