Magician's Choice

Praise for Magician’s Choice “In the future of Magician's Choice, magic has displaced science, but magic takes as much rigor to operate as technology ever did. Stefon Mears weaves an entertaining space opera out of tuning forks, duels, and dragon familiars. The result is an impressive debut novel.” – Bruce Holland Rogers Author of The Keyhole Opera About Magician’s Choice Academic wizard Donal Cuthbert thought courier work would be easy money.
