Hex Allen can't do magic a huge problem when everything from lights to locks is powered by simple spells that everyone (save a few unfortunate ?undevelopeds?) can do. After years of feeling useless, Hex sees opportunity to change her future when a once-in-a-century opportunity to journey to the Wishing Wyrm, a legendary dragon that has the ability to grant a single wish opens up. Unfortunately, Hex isn't the only one after the wish, and every rival wish hunter has magic on their side. Every rival except the Clanksmiths, Cam and Fuse. Like Hex, they can't do magic, but they've learned to build clank, creations made using the mysterious, forgotten arts of science and engineering. After a fairy fiasco throws Hex and the Clanksmiths together, they agree to cooperate for the time being. With the Clanksmiths' know-how and Hex's creativity, they outsmart monsters with everything from LEDs to electromagnets to water balloon launchers. But as they race to the Wishing Wyrm, Hex must decide between her friendship with the Clanksmiths and the wish that would give her a normal, magical life. Pages from Hex's design notebook provide step-by-step project instructions for aspiring Clanksmiths.

The Wet Hex - Sun Yung Shin - Bog - Coffee House Press - Plusbog.dk

The Wet Hex - Sun Yung Shin - Bog - Coffee House Press - Plusbog.dk

Sun Yung Shin calls her readers into the unknown now-future of the human species, an underworld museum of births, deaths, evolutions, and extinctions. Personal and environmental violations form the backdrop against which Sun Yung Shin examines questions of grievability, violence, and responsibility in The Wet Hex. Incorporating sources such as her own archival immigration documents, Ovid’s Metamorphoses, Christopher Columbus’s journals, and traditional Korean burial rituals, Shin explores the ways that lives are weighed and bartered. Smashing the hierarchies of god and humanity, heaven and hell, in favor of indigenous Korean shamanism and animism, The Wet Hex layers an apocalyptic revision of nineteenth-century imagery of the sublime over the present, conjuring a reality at once beautiful and terrible.

Not even a little. As a child, Delia Merriweather believed with all her heart that she was a witch. Because all Merriweather women are witches. There''s just one problem: none of them have any magic. As an adult, Delia no longer believes magic even exists. But, when she somehow accidentally breaks a hex and restores her family''s powers, she''s forced to accept a new reality: she is a witch. And maybe that''s why the crushingly handsome guy next door has been looking at her like he''s expecting her to fly off on a broomstick, cackling into the night. Just when Max thinks he''s done keeping an eye on the bumbling, magic-less Merriweather women, he suddenly finds himself forced to help his neighbours learn to control their new magic before they out witches everywhere. And despite Delia''s open suspicion of him, Max just can''t tell whether his growing feelings for Delia are real, or if he''s come under the spell of the most (cluelessly) powerful witch he''s ever known. One thing''s for certain: Delia''s life is suddenly looking pretty magical . . . ✨
