Deep in the heart of Mexico lies a hidden power that has existed for centuries, where sorcerers and witches practice the ancient art of Brujaria for both good and evil purposes. These Brujos and Brujas are well-versed in the manipulation of power that they use to heal sickness, cast curses, or even kill! In a local village, a highly respected Brujo-healer is murdered by another Brujo, who inflicts a powerful and continuing curse upon his victim's family. Help comes in the form of Sonia Brosz, a Charismatic and Spiritual Warrior experienced in doing battle with negative forces. Her spiritual partner in tow, Sonia travels to Mexico to free the family from the torment of the evil Brujo and bring peace to the area. But the evil they encounter is much stronger and more powerful than they imagined and it soon becomes a very real struggle of life and death. The Curse of El Diablo is the frighteningly true story of an epic battle between the forces of good and evil, and the triumph of faith over darkness.

El Diablo is in the details in this Latinx pirate fantasy starring a transmasculine nonbinary teen with a mission of revenge, redemption, and revolution--now in paperback! On Mar León de la Rosa's sixteenth birthday, el Diablo comes calling. Mar is a transmasculine nonbinary teen pirate hiding a magical ability to manipulate fire and ice. But their magic isn't enough to reverse a wicked bargain made by their father, and now el Diablo has come to collect his payment: the soul of Mar's father and the entire crew of their ship. When Mar is miraculously rescued by the sole remaining pirate crew in the Caribbean, el Diablo returns to give them a choice: give up their soul to save their father by the harvest moon, or never see him again. The task is impossible--Mar refuses to make a bargain, and there's no way their magic is a match for el Diablo. Then Mar finds the most unlikely allies: Bas, an infuriatingly arrogant and handsome pirate--and the captain's son; and Dami, a gender-fluid demonio whose motives are never quite clear. For the first time in their life, Mar may have the courage to use their magic. It could be their only redemption--or it could mean certain death.
