Wendy is the real "wizard" of the Diamond Empire, a kingdom built on gadgets, robotics, and a free-market society. Using her ultracomputer and her Cadabra-wide surveillance system, she can spy on everybody and plan their futures, playing God, and pulling the strings.
But Wendy's secret is spreading quickly. Conspiracies abound about her father being dead and her entire royal ancestry being a sham. What will the kings of Cadabra do once they find out Wendy is just a lonely teenage girl holding unlimited resources and power?
Wendy's villains are increasing. Conspiracy buffs, violent protesters, witch covens, assassins, vigilantes, and multinational corporations are all determined to expose Wendy's secrets and destroy the "Diamond Standard", breaking the hold that the Diamond Empire has on the Cadabra economy.
It's going to take an act of God to prevent a World War, or at least the sharp mind of a watchmaker's child.
If you enjoy existential fairy tales that make you howl with laughter right before breaking your heart, and libertine novels that walk the line between trauma and comedy, The End of the Magical Kingdom is sure to give you funny nightmares.
ADVISORY: Although this book is not age-restricted, it contains graphic violence, horrific scenes of emotional abuse, foul language, and controversial subject matter.
