Life in the magical mess of the Detroit Free Zone is never easy. When you're laboring under the curse of a certain prideful, overbearing dragon, it can be down right impossible.
My name is Opal Yong-ae, and I'm a Cleaner. At least, I used to be. Thanks to the supernatural bad luck that turns everything I do against me, these days I'm more of a walking disaster. Getting rid of this curse is the only way to get my life back. Unfortunately, dragon magic is every bit as sneaky and deadly as the monsters behind it, and just as hard to beat.
But I've never been one to take her doom at face value. Cornered doesn't mean defeated, and in an awakened city that rules herself, dragons are no longer the biggest powers around.
Opal's 2nd paperback is a 6x9 trade size with a buttery-feeling matte cover that's just pure pleasure to hold. Available widely to order from most places that sell physical books, including:
Or you can request it from your local bookstore! Anyone with an Ingrams account can place an order using ISBN: 9781952367014.
Part-Time Gods should also be accessible to libraries, so don't be shy about requesting it.
