Fifteen-year-old Reason Cansino has learned the painful truth that she—like her mother, grandmother, and new friends Tom and Jay-Tee—must face a choice between using the magic that lives in her blood and dying young, or refusing to use the magic and losing her mind. Now a new threat leaves Reason stranded alone in New York City, struggling to control a power she barely understands. But could the danger she faces also hold the key to saving her life? Magic Lessons is a stunning follow-up to Larbalestier’s debut novel, Magic or Madness, which earned multiple starred reviews and a spot on the Locus 2005 Recommended Reading List, along with being named a Best Book of the Year by School Library Journal and the Young Adult Round Table of the TLA.

Part 2 of the Magic or Madness trilogy. This volume is not a stand-alone as it relies on the reader's knowledge of the first book and willingness to wait for the third for the resolution of most plot points. Character development continues, as does the complexity of the situation and the difficulty ...
