Out of the Gemmic Sea is an entertaining fantasy adventure set in a world where magic is dying (maybe), cats can talk and do magic (for sure), and the best person to help the humans overcome a deadly adversary is not a human at all. Family, friendship, and finding the truth about the people you come to love all play a big part in this fun and enjoyable read!

-- Matt Mikalatos, author of The Crescent Stone

With her magisophic degree and advanced studies in magical pathology,
Kaeda knows all there is to know about magic. So, when the Gemmic Council
recruits her to figure out why the magic in Molva is disappearing, she knows
the idea is ridiculous. Magic can’t cease to be. It’s one of the foundational
principles of magical theory!

Reef doesn’t know a thing about magic, but he knows Khirians. When his
people demand to be included in the Molvan Magical Crisis Commission, Reef
thinks he’s their best hope to not start another war. He expects
traveling with a bunch of humans to test the limits of his patience, but he
doesn’t expect to become the humans’ best chance at defeating a
mysterious magical foe.

Together with a wizard with a flair for the dramatic, a cat who’d rather be
doing drugs, and a stoic war veteran who happens to be Kaeda’s estranged
father, Reef and Kaeda travel to Molva. There they discover that there’s much
more to Molva’s magical problem, and to each other, than first meets the eye.
