Letter Mage: Quartos
4 primary works
Book 1
When 14-year-old Aleph Worf-Sapir chooses to enroll in the Lunar University's first-ever student exchange program, he already knows he's entering enemy territory. The other departments have been attacking the tiny College of the Glottal Moon as long as he can remember. He's lost friends. He's lost family. Driven by the desire to keep his home and loved ones safe, Aleph confronts the other departments head-on.
He has no idea what he's in for.
The brilliant Prism Witches want to lock him up, the mysterious Fourier Monks want to steal him away, the Glottal Moon isn't what he thought it was, and the Land Below sent a strange (and handsome) young man to the moons to stir up trouble. Aleph has to figure out who he can trust, and fast.
Everything's changing.
Book 2
Aleph Worf-Sapir is sinking deeper into interlunar politics.
The Prismatic Men are in desperate need of liberation. A dead man needs his help. His time on this moon is running out. And all of that is put on hold when the news arrives.
There's been a grisly murder in University Village.
Aleph is returning home, albeit briefly, to an incredible situation: the exchange students and Heads of Department are converging on his hometown. Behind the whirlwind of family secrets, internal politics, and ticking clocks, Aleph comes to a conclusion.
It's time to speak up.
The Letter Mage: Quartos are novella-length collections of Patreon serial The Letter Mage.
Book 3
Aleph could never have guessed how deeply the Lunar University was broken.
Defecting professors. Jealous wizards. Exceedingly handsome enemies. His mother's imprisonment is still burning in Aleph's mind, and he has a thousand complications to deal with. So of course it gets worse: when the Head Researcher of the Helical College goes missing, Aleph is instantly under suspicion. Can he throw himself into his work? Deal with each problem when it comes his way?
Or will the secrets of his parents make Aleph do something he regrets?
In the third collection of The Letter Mage serial, Aleph battles with mechs, mutants, blackmail, and love. This isn't a story you want to miss.
Book 4
Aleph Worf-Sapir, nearly fifteen and uninterested in school, has been offered the chance of a lifetime: an opportunity to study on the different moons of the Lunar University! After decades of infighting, the other Departments have opened their doors. Aleph's job is to attend each school for a month, learning as much as he can and reporting back to the Glottal Moon. Sounds easy, right?
But so far, Aleph's journey has been fraught with complications. He's been imprisoned, romanced, kidnapped, attacked by giant snakes, lectured, and assigned as a juror on his mother's murder trial. Worst of all, he's pretty sure he killed Olive Gilbreth, leader of the College of the Gear. But it couldn't have been his fault. Aleph's a good person.
Right?
Huey Gilbreth, a kid with a mouth as big as her brain, is convinced that she's meant to take the seat of power her late mother left behind. Aleph's jury duty is approaching fast. Mysteries from the Prismatic Moon are catching up to him. Unanswered questions are piling up.
Something's got to give, and soon.
