Wizard Academies — Steven Philip Jones

Reverberaunts are young wizards who died under mysterious circumstances and return to life. They don't remember their past. Reverberaunts have only a year to find out their previous lives -- who they were and how they died -- or go back to being dead forever ... Cardy Wagner is a 12-year-old girl found unconscious inside the smoldering ruins of the Town Hall of Devil's Bridge after the building is destroyed by lightning. In the hospital, Cardy meets a streetwise young satyr named Alacrity, who invites Cardy to become a student at the wizard school. The clock is ticking on Cardy to discover her past -- and it becomes increasingly clear that someone does not want her to find out how and why she died. Someone dark and powerful in the ways of magick. Cardy must take risks that no student at Grackleflint's has ever dared before. Risks that may save her life -- but may get her sent away from Grackleflint's forever.
