The Midwizard of Cosconia

Call The Midwiz: Book 1

Advance Reader Copy

Blurb

Have you ever seen a pregnant orc? Or a giantess having a baby?

In a land where Maternal Magic once protected every mother and child, birth has become deadly. Fresh out of midwizardry school, Izzie is determined to use her blood magic to save lives.

Maternal Magic is waning each year. She’s lost friends and patients. And no one knows why. Haunted by an ancient ritual that went tragically wrong, Izzie has sworn to do no more harm. But when Cosconia’s twelve races vie for the formerly uninhabitable Wasteland, war threatens to consume the continent—and somehow Izzie ends up in the middle of the conflict.

What’s a wartime midwizard to do? Izzie must face the trauma of her past—which might have more to do with their current predicament than she realizes—and possibly make peace with a very attractive, very annoying wizard.

Could the truth heal her dying land—or break it (and her) beyond repair?

Hi! I’m Zack (with a “K” - don’t forget it!): OBGYN, women’s health advocate, proud owner of two Aussiedoodles, and author of debut fantasy novel “The Midwizard of Cosconia.”

I've been to all 7 continents, speak fluent Spanish, and have delivered thousands of babies. I've read hundreds of fantasy books, and I feel like they're all missing one thing: accurate representation of pregnancy and childbearing!

Women’s health is severely underrepresented in fantasy literature (and the entire world in general, don’t even get me started on that). All of us were born at some point—I think, please tell me if you weren't—yet somehow we rarely see pregnant characters in fantasy books, and there are certainly very few depictions of labor and delivery. I'm about to change that!
