Opis

With the unexpected death of his mother, Zachary Stavros returns home to begin a journey of both personal discovery and profound revelation as his eyes are opened to a supernatural world that she had been keeping from him. Complicating matters, a ruthless group known only as the Followers of Saint George is pursuing Zach with deadly intent. With only the help of an enigmatic woman named Claudia and her embittered colleague Arete, Zach must stand against this mysterious cabal as he unravels not only the truth about the world around him, but also his own place within it. Along the way, Zach not only learns about his mother's secrets, but also the sinister legacy of the group that is after him and the seemingly impossible truth about the world around him. Even the son of a fortune teller knows that fairy tales are just that - make-believe and myth - yet Zach discovers that myths are based on fact and some legends may be true. Suddenly, he's thrust into the middle of an entirely new landscape where magic still struggles to survive against the march of industry, strange creatures are hidden away in forgotten sanctuaries, and ancient items exist that can perform unexplainable feats. Zach alone bears the ability to use arcane power unhindered in the modern world of science and technology, yet with his enemies closing in and his allies little more than strangers, he will need to master that power and reconcile the responsibility that comes with it in order to save both himself and those close to him.
