Child Seven: Book One is a fantasy western that follows the stories of three "Sevens" as they navigate a world unwelcome of their magic. You will discover Walker's mysterious backstory, root for Ajay as he struggles to hide his power after an unexpected tragedy, and oversee the resistance with Krestal and her sister. During their journeys, they meet new friends with unique powers (my personal favorite being Pierson) and fight for their right to exist safely in the world. The book features an all LGBT+ cast of characters with romantic tension building throughout. Child Seven is funny, exciting, and I cannot wait for Book Two!
