The Ethereal Squadron: A Wartime Fantasy (The Sorcerers of Verdun) by Shami Stovall

SOLDIERS, SORCERERS, AND MONSTERS…THIS IS WORLD WAR ONE LIKE YOU’VE NEVER IMAGINED IT.

A World War I military fantasy about a secret war between sorcerers. Florence Cavell, codename Geist, joined the legendary unit comprising the allied powers’ mightiest sorcerers — the Ethereal Squadron. Armed with her powerful specter sorcery, she had to defy her family, cut her hair, and disguise herself as a man to join the legendary Ethereal Squadron.

But then the Germans unleash the Grave-Maker Gas, a concoction that will make the war even bloodier. Even her ghostly magic can’t resist the gas’s corrosive power, and it costs Geist everything she loves—her team, her friends, even the use of an arm. This is the new weapon that could end the war—and give the Germans the world. Geist must stop the deadly weapon before it’s too late…or will the secrets of her past finally catch up with her?
