Working for the secretive Foundation, Donovan, Susan and Marciâall of whom have special gifts, including teleportation and spellcastingâsoon wonder if their employers are the good guys or just as bad as the enemies they fight against. By aNew York Times best-selling author. - Baker & Taylor
Working for the secretive Foundation, Donovan, Susan, and Marci--all of whom have special gifts, including teleportation and spellcasting--soon wonder if their employers are the good guys or just as bad as the enemies they fight against. - McMillan Palgrave
A snarky, irreverent tale of secret magic in the modern world, the first solo standalone novel in two decades from Steven Brust, the New York Times bestselling author of the Vlad Taltos series
Donovan was shot by a cop. For jaywalking, supposedly. Actually, for arguing with a cop while black. Four of the nine shots were lethalâor would have been, if their target had been anybody else. The Foundation picked him up, brought him back, and trained him further. âLethalâ turns out to be a relative term when magic is involved.
When Marci was fifteen, she levitated a paperweight and threw it at a guy she didnât like. The Foundation scooped her up for training too.
âHippie chickâ Susan got well into her Foundation training before they told her about the magic, but sheâs as powerful as Donovan and Marci now.
They can teleport themselves thousands of miles, conjure shields that will stop bullets, and read information from the remnants of spells cast by others days before.
They all work for the secretive Foundationâ¦for minimum wage.
Which is okay, because the Foundation are the good guys. Arenât they?
