Induction: Above and Below the Making of a Magus

Michael awakens diminished.Something vital has been stolen from him in the night-a missing piece of himself that leaves him hollow, haunted, and unable to continue as he was before. If he is to recover what was lost, he must descend into the World Below, a realm of living myth where ancient powers walk hidden roads, magic becomes reality, and nothing is quite what it seems.As Michael journeys through strange lands and stranger mysteries, he finds himself drawn into an unfolding initiation that will test his courage, his sanity, and his understanding of who he truly is. Along the way he must rely on an unlikely fellowship of companions- some wise, some dangerous, and some impossible to forget.But beneath every wonder and every revelation lies a darker question:What if the thing he seeks has become something other than what he hopes to find?
