Welcome to the Joaniverse
a world where magic is very real,
as are monsters and the women who fight them.
The Order of Joan has long walked the line between the magical and mundane,
defending both.
But the world is modernizing, and so is magic.
For the first time in modern history,
magic is being used on an industrial scale—for warfare.
Even amidst this chaos and change
the Order of Joan, faithful to Her cause,
must find a way to hold true
to her motto:
Justice does not burn; it lights the way
First-Degree Magic
Three fates intertwine as a flapper with a sword, a bootlegging demon, and an occult detective race to catch a serial killer whose dangerous magic could set Chicago ablaze.
COMING MAY 2025
It is March, 1915 in France, and just behind the front lines a woman is running for her life. She does not run from enemy soldiers or falling mortars; a far more sinister creature stalks her, one created by bloodshed and black magic. This is the newest threat in a war growing uglier by the day, and it won't be the last. Or the worst.
But this woman is not a civilian. As a knight of the Order of Joan, she is only one of a legion of women with a long history of monster hunting. So when she runs, she does not do so blindly; it's all part of the larger plan.
