Nawlins: YA Black Fantasy

Welcome to Nawlins School of the Gifted, a prestigious academy for gifted young wizards, where the vibrant culture of New Orleans intertwines with ancient powers. Hidden from the world, this magical institution is where legacies are forged, and young wizards uncover their destinies.

For fifteen-year-old Donna Marie Guillory from the Bronx, life has always been a battle-fighting for her mother's health, her family's survival, and against a world that often seems stacked against her. But when a letter arrives inviting her to Nawlins, Donna discovers a hidden part of herself, a power she never knew she possessed.

At Nawlins, Donna finds more than a community; she uncovers a rich history and strength unlike anything she's ever known. However, as she delves into her family's mysterious past, she finds herself at the heart of a centuries-old conflict that threatens the very foundation of the school and possibly the fate of the entire world. Armed with her newfound abilities and unyielding determination, Donna must navigate treacherous alliances and confront a darkness that once tore her family apart. But she won't do it alone. An unexpected ally, someone she believed lost forever, will stand by her side.

Nawlins is more than a story of magic, it celebrates resilience, heritage, and the power of self-discovery. Step into a world where the past shapes the present, and every choice carries the weight of generations.
