Hew had always dreamt of being a knight. Take that, villain! Yes, princess, of course I'll rescue you. Thank you, your Majesty, yes I am great with a sword. Unfortunately, being a farmer's son made that dream impossible. Real life was more about cleaning animal mess and checking for weeds.

Until he met the dragon.

After a global nuclear holocaust, the surviving continents agreed to sever contact with each other to prevent another war, allowing them to rebuild. Decades later, three strangers–an art student in Paris, a Russian spy, and a South African programmer–have their lives changed forever, as they learn that magic has returned to Earth. One wants to use it for her art. Another for the glory of God and the Church. The third wants it for himself, no matter the cost. Their lives intertwine as forces they can’t understand threaten the entire world.
