Sometimes seeing the future isn’t as fun as it sounds. His allies are an air elemental with the memory of a goldfish and a creature living under Hampstead Heath that would make most people run screaming. and who also just happens to carry a curse that’ll kill anyone who gets too close, assuming the mages hunting her don’t do it first. Right now Alex has a problem – a site’s been discovered containing an ancient and powerful relic, and lots of people are looking for a diviner to open it, including a trio of dark mages, a faction of the Council with an agenda of their own, and a shadowy figure out of Alex’s past, all of whom are looking to recruit, press-gang, or kill Alex, not necessarily in that order.Īs if that’s not enough, Alex has to take care of his would-be apprentice, who has some connection to the relic which is making her a target as well. This is impressive to most people but less so to other mages, who can do things like throw fire, disintegrate things, and fly. Alex Verus is a diviner, able to see the future.
