A magical, adventure packed and romantic #ownvoices YA fantasy, perfect for fans of Harry Potter and Carry On. You do magic once, and it sticks to you like glitter glue... Gay angsty teen Johnny and his goth best friend, trans girl Alison, spend their summer dabbling in magic. When they use spells to defend themselves from bullies, they suddenly find themselves whisked away to the Marduk Institute, a school for wayward wizards. Johnny and Alison must now adapt to a new world of spells, fraternities, and cute boys like Hunter and Blake... But Marduk isn't as safe as it seems. Johnny and Alison are pulled into a supernatural fight for their lives and must find the strength to battle the monsters lurking in the shadows of the school - and the demons that only exist inside their head.
V.S. Santoni is a Latinx, gay, nonbinary guy who spends way too much time daydreaming. When he isn't thinking up queer dreampunk stories and scouring YouTube for retro-anime movies, he's sobbing to sad, old punk songs with his best friend, a Chihuahua named Darla. He lives in Nashville with his husband. I'm a Gay Wizard is his first novel.
