The Shadowing
If you were sent out into the world to learn of its evil, what would you expect to find?
In book two of the Powerless series, Mira and her friends must endure a period of apprenticeship, known as The Shadowing. This is their last chance to prepare themselves before they are thrust into the mysterious war, which no one seems to know anything about. While Vern, Aoi, Will, and Roselyn seek out pre-arranged mentors to help them develop their unique magical abilities, Mira — the only one without a power — sets off in search of the brilliant author of her science manuals, Flip Widget, who she learns was the doctor at her birth. For all they have to fear that waits for them in the future, they will find that the troubles they prepare for are much closer at hand than they think.

"I've always admired teens because they seem to have a better eye for what's important than adults. It's been a while since I've been one though, and now I'm desperately trying to find a way to hold onto my care-free, food-fighting summer camp days in the stories I write. If I could just recreate one tiny fraction of the magic I felt, it would blow people away, leaving them awestruck and mesmerized with the impression that life could be so effortless and meaningful."
Powerless
Powerless consists of five primary books, and includes one additional book that complement the series but is not considered mandatory reads. The current recommended reading order for the series is provided below.
