Synopsis:
In the former United States, sixteen-year-old Noam Álvaro wakes up in a hospital bed, the sole survivor of the viral magic that killed his family and made him a technopath. His ability to control technology attracts the attention of the minister of defense and thrusts him into the magical elite of the nation of Carolinia.
The son of undocumented immigrants, Noam has spent his life fighting for the rights of refugees fleeing magical outbreaks—refugees Carolinia routinely deports with vicious efficiency. Sensing a way to make change, Noam accepts the minister’s offer to teach him the science behind his magic, secretly planning to use it against the government. But then he meets the minister’s son—cruel, dangerous, and achingly beautiful—and the way forward becomes less clear.
Caught between his purpose and his heart, Noam must decide who he can trust and how far he’s willing to go in pursuit of the greater good.

Favorite Quotes

Refugee Rights are Human Rights
Magic crawled like ivy up the sides of the fire escape next door
Magic killed his father and left Noam alive. His body had fought magic and conquered it.  That made him a Witching
To date, his greatest accomplishment was hacking immigration records and getting thrown in juvie for it

Victoria Lee grew up in Durham, North Carolina, where she spent twelve ascetic years as a vegetarian before discovering spicy chicken wings are, in fact, a delicacy. She’s been a state finalist competitive pianist, a hitchhiker, a pizza connoisseur, an EMT, an expat in China and Sweden, and a science doctoral student. She’s also a bit of a snob about fancy whisky.
Victoria writes early in the morning, then spends the rest of the day trying to impress her border collie puppy and make her experiments work.
She is represented by Holly Root and Taylor Haggerty at Root Literary.

Review of The Fever King

Review (4.5 Stars):  The Fever King kept me on the edge of my seat and I couldn’t get enough of Noam’s journey to become a witching. This futuristic tale was riveting to me as Noam dealt with the pain of losing those close to him and the determination to use his magic to fight against the military.  Ms. Lee’s writing was absolutely mesmerizing and I love that this is the first book in a brand new series.  Can’t wait to get my hands on this next installment of this exciting series.
