Drain cleaner is cheaper than a spell, and magic carpets have been reduced to pizza delivery. Fifteen-year-old foundling Jennifer Strange runs Kazam Mystical Arts Management, an employment agency for magicians\u2014but it\u2019s hard to stay in business when magic is drying up. And then the visions start, predicting the death of the world\u2019s last dragon at the hands of an unnamed Dragonslayer. If that\u2019s true, everything will change for Kazam\u2014and for Jennifer. <\/p>\n<p>Because something is coming. Something known as\u00a0.\u00a0.\u00a0.
