Battle Practice for Bookwalkers

A crazy mage, suspiciously sweet mermaids, fights with ghouls in a night cemetery, a ghost with gifts impossible to refuse, a bloody ritual, and an artifact of Primordial Darkness…
Yes, this was not how Kira had imagined her summer internship after finishing her first year at the Higher School of Librarians. And it had all looked so beautiful… A month by the sea with her partner and friend Karel as a compa… comrade and participant in merry escapades, an unobtrusive mentor, a passing grade, and then vacation!
But with her talent for attracting trouble to every part of her body, Kira proved herself during the internship as well. And, jumping ahead a little, one secret can be revealed: the vacation also failed to live up to her hopes for rest and relaxation—so much happened there! But more on that later.
For now, the special-assignment trainees are taking their first step into a new reality and toward incredible adventures.
