Based on the novel The Axolotl Familiar — now brought to life with over 100 full-color, anime-style illustrations! Axol always thought being a magical familiar would be glamorous—maybe even heroic. In reality? He’s more like a glorified housekeeper for Serina, a spoiled 14-year-old mermaid witch-in-training with a knack for magical disasters. Sure, Axol can talk, cast spells, and clean up chaos like a pro (someone has to). But between mopping endless castle hallways and dodging Serina’s temper tantrums, even a magic-wielding axolotl has his limits. Life under the sea takes a wild turn when Serina drags Axol to MerMage Academy for "Bring Your Familiar to School Day." There, Axol discovers two shocking truths: 1. Serina is not the school's Queen Bee—she’s more like a villain in training. 2. Above the ocean lies the Sea of Stars... and maybe, just maybe, a rabbit living on the moon. For the first time, Axol dares to dream beyond the castle walls. Operation Moon Rabbit is officially underway! But first, he’ll have to outwit a jealous eel, sneak past enchanted defenses, and survive Serina’s “help.” No pressure. Can one small axolotl chase a big dream? Or will he end up as eel bait before he ever glimpses the stars? Full of heart, humor, and underwater adventure, The Axolotl Familiar is perfect for fans of whimsical fantasy, magical creatures, and determined underdogs who refuse to give up on their dreams.
