A School of Many Futures — Stephen Savage

Dangerous gods. Evil sorcery. Lost technology. Homework. Marigold the sorceress and Scintilla the technic were typical teachers of Techno-Mystical Safety. It took people with an edge to teach about mad deities, deadly tech, and wild magic. Unfortunately, their edge came from secrets: dead god and government coverup kind of secrets.  That meant people started asking questions no one wanted answered. Teaming up with their fellow conspirators, Reverend Beacon and Briar the soldier, they took an assignment at recently-founded Magoneer Academy. A typical new school was all they needed to escape scrutiny about their past. Unfortunately, their secrets might be the least dangerous ones there.  How could a school barely a year old attract impossible mysteries, strange destinies, an assassin, and worse? It would take people with an exceptional edge to protect the students and find the truth . . .
