When Isaac Vainio helped to reveal magic to the world, he
dreamed of a utopian future, a new millennium of magical
prosperity. One year later, things aren't going quite as
he'd hoped.
An organization known as Vanguard, made up of magical
creatures and ex-Porters, wants open war with the mundane
world. Isaac's own government is incarcerating "potential
supernatural enemies" in prisons and internment camps. And
Isaac finds himself targeted by all sides.
It's a war that will soon envelop the world, and the key to
victory may lie with Isaac himself, as he struggles to
incorporate everything he's learned into a new, more
powerful form of libriomancy. Surrounded by betrayal and
political intrigue, Isaac and a ragtag group of allies must
evade pursuit both magical and mundane, expose a conspiracy
by some of the most powerful people in the world, and find
a path to a better future.
But what will that future cost Isaac and the ones he loves?
