Richard "Vegas" Beltran is an underachiever. That's bad for any student, but it's especially bad when you go to a wizardry school. Black Magic is something to be taken very seriously, but Vegas has been caught smoking "eye of newt" in the boys' bathroom, and all of his bubbling cauldrons contain ice and alcohol...

The principal, Professor Diaz, is ready to drop Vegas into a specialized magic class. But Vegas would rather die, Houdini-style, in a botched escape act than have to go to magic school "special ed."

After all, Vegas only came to Absolution Academy, school for the "Paranormal Sciences," to learn a spell that would bring his girlfriend, Katherine, back from the DEAD.

But he soon discovers that resurrecting the dead is an act of G*dslaughter--a forbidden form of magic--and at Absolution Academy, an illegal activity. 

But as his adventures in Absolution Academy unfold, he finds that "illegal" is a funny word... one among many that he doesn't seem to know the meaning of...

**Easy A** Book 1:

Vegas is determined to find the spell he needs to bring his beloved back from the DEAD. He strikes up a deal with creepy professor Allen Allens. If Vegas survives one night of "detention" in Dr. Allens torture chamber, Allen Allens will give Vegas a spell book that contains the spell he needs. 

...The forbidden Resurrection spell...

And if Vegas doesn't pass the evil Doctor's death trap for teenagers? He can choose between being Allens' gorgeous young sex slave or face the cold grip of DEATH. 

...Death is the better deal.

It's all or nothing for Vegas and truth is death is probably the only way he's ever going to escape this hell of a high school
