[Complete] [90k] [YA Fantasy with sci-fi twist] Veils of Magoron

Hi everyone!

I'm looking for a few awesome beta readers to help shape my debut YA fantasy novel (with sci-fi elements). After finishing the draft, I've done several rounds of self-edits to make the story as polished as possible before sharing it with beta readers. If you enjoy stories with self-discovery, found family, portal magic, elemental factions, and isekai, this might be your thing!

Genre: YA Fantasy with futuristic sci-fi elements Word Count: 90,000 Timeline: Ideally 5 weeks (5 chapters per week), but I'm flexible with the timeline. Format: Google Docs

About the Story (Short blurb): Sixteen-year-old Abir dreamed of the stars, not spells. But when a portal rips open during a pioneering time-travel experiment, pulling him and four other teens into a world where only those who awaken magic can survive and keep their memories intact, he has no choice. As his friends begin awakening elemental magic, and his past and future slip away, Abir must find his hidden magic before he’s erased forever. Think Stranger Things meets Earthsea (minus the 80s) in this YA fantasy with a sci-fi twist.

TW: Arachnophobia (Scene with a larger spider like creature)

Expected Feedback:

• Looking for thoughts on pacing, worldbuilding, character arcs, and overall engagement.
• Open to general impressions and in-line comments.

Perks:

• Your name in the acknowledgments (Forever gratitude)
• Early looks at art, illustrations, and book cover reveal.
• A free ebook copy once it's published

Interested? Just drop a comment or DM, and I’ll share the beta reader application form with more details.

Thank you so much in advance!!
