This fast-paced action fantasy keeps the mood light, the romance building and the surprises coming. From the impervious streets of Manhattan to a magical world where fish learn spells and swords flash, romance will blossom, a king will betray his sons and magic will prevail — if our hero can just get the magic to work at all.

Synopsis

Meet Greyson Oberon is a wizard, swordsman, and the youngest man ever granted a Royal Charter. His mission: retrieve the Symphony Stone from a perilous realm called New York—the same quest that claimed his legendary older brother years ago.

Armed with spells and a sword, Grey arrives in Manhattan expecting danger. Instead, he finds elevators, smartphones, and Gail Kelley—a cynical New Yorker who turns out to be the former owner of Grey's loyal 'dog' Elric. As Gail helps Grey navigate the modern world, an unlikely romance blooms. But when Grey discovers his brother didn't die—he stayed and built a business empire—Grey must choose between his magical kingdom and the messy, spell-free reality where he's fallen in love.
