The Cloak and Its Wizard

A modern fantasy full of monsters, magic, and snarky accessories

Out on 28th February 2026

I don’t choose my wizards lightly. It’s a lifetime commitment. Their lifetime, that is. I’ll outlast them all. Unless the world ends. Which is looking increasingly likely…

After a century of boredom in the library of the secret Order of the Open Eye, the Cloak of Sunset and Starlight finally chooses a wizard. Unfortunately for the cloak, Veronica Noble isn’t thrilled. A brilliant doctor, Veronica has been dragged into the Order against her will, and doesn’t want to be saddled with a glittering, starlight-covered cloak that sneaks through vents, sets off car alarms, and refuses to leave her shoulders.

When Veronica accidentally reveals her powers to all of Minneapolis, superheroes take notice. The Order threatens to reclaim the cloak. And sea serpents from other dimensions keep crashing into reality.

Now the cloak must do everything in its power to keep its wizard safe—even if that wizard isn’t sure she wants it.

The Cloak and Its Wizard is a whimsical fantasy adventure about a mischievous, sentient cloak and the reluctant wizard it refuses to let go. Perfect for fans of I’m Afraid You’ve Got Dragons, Emily Wilde’s Encyclopaedia of Faeries, and The Very Secret Society of Irregular Witches, this novel blends lighthearted humour with high stakes and emotional depth.

Also available in print and ebook from Amazon and all other major retailers.
