Confessions of the Magpie Wizard: Book 2: Demonkin

Have you heard of Captain Malthus?

He was a rising star in the demonic Grim Horde. Shame he threw it all away. Such wasted potential.

Now embedded at the Nagoya Academy of Magic under the name Soren Marlowe, he’s made friends and even taken a lover. He couldn’t have imagined it going so well when he was exiled, but it’s almost gone off without a hitch.

Almost.

One of his teachers knows that he isn’t really Soren. Worse, she has powerful and mysterious allies. Malthus can’t fight an enemy he can’t see and she could expose him on the slightest whim. Perhaps it’s time to move on?

He tries to tell himself he wouldn’t miss his new life. That he isn’t so far gone. Even as he helps his sworn enemies with their magic lessons and love lives. Even as he spoils his girlfriend. After all, it’s only for the cover. It’s not like he’s become attached.

We always knew he was soft.

When will he figure that out?
