Jessica Khoury is the author of multiple books for teens.
The Mystwick School of Musicraft is her middle-grade debut. In
addition to being an author, she is an artistic mapmaker and spends
far too much time scribbling tiny mountains and trees for fictional
worlds. Her spare hours are spent video gaming, painting, and
cooking badly. She lives in Greenville, South Carolina, with her
husband, daughter, and sassy husky, Katara.

"The concept of musicraft--producing magic by playing music--feels fresh and is undeniably appealing, and who is going to say no to a trip to another magical boarding school? The storytelling flows, pulling readers along, and some particularly grand, magical sequences (including a legitimately epic ending) make this stand-alone fantasy a memorable adventure...full of heart, clever plotting, and strong world building that young readers, musicians and otherwise, will enjoy escaping to."--Booklist "A toe-tapping fantasy novel mixes music and mystery."--Kirkus "For fans of Harry Potter who don't want to stray too far from Hogwarts but are in need of new adventures." --School Library Journal "At the core, this is a feel-good story about believing in one's ability, musical or otherwise." --The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books --
