When Magic Calls: A Collection of Modern Fairy Tales

Witness the Wonder and Terror of Magic

Once upon a time in a land not so far away, in Truth or Consequences, New Mexico, a jealous girl stole a magical artifact from a fairy tale museum, unlocking a curse that might cost her life.

Right now, in the wilds of the Rocky Mountains, a man obsessively studies a wild girl living with and raised by a wolf pack, but soon watching won't be enough.

Tonight, in a city a storm will rage, waking a boy from a deadly dream and propelling him toward the insidious darkness of his ancestry.

Fairy tales are taking place all around us in modern times. Look closely and you will see fear, fate, and magic intertwine or perhaps discover you are in the midst of a tale of your own.

"When Magic Calls beckons the reader to it like a siren on the shore . . . Caitlin Berve's creativity is nothing short of brilliant" ~ Todd Mika author of Tales from Grimmgard

About the Author

Caitlin Berve is a fantasy author, editor, and speaker, and like many writers, grew up a bookworm. However, she couldn't have fathomed a career in the writing industry. Surrounded by family members in the medical field, she was determined to become a doctor. When Caitlin wasn't chosen from the medical school waiting list, she was relieved and realized the fantasy novel she'd written in her spare time was her true passion. Now she uses her MFA to teach creative writing and founded her company Ignited Ink Writing, where she seeks to fill the world with the kind of writing that lingers with readers and find magic in modern times.

Beth Berve has long enjoyed instilling imagination and fun into life with illustrations and paintings. Mostly self-taught, her main motivation has been to infuse creativity and whimsy in her children's lives as well as the lives of others. The illustrations in this book were made with love.
