He plies his trade outside the Metropolitan Museum of Art, entrancing passing crowds with feats of conjuring and sleight of hand. One afternoon, he plays a trick on a shabbily dressed man whose beard is twisted and whose glass eye gives him a sinister leer. Offended, the man responds with magic of his own, casting a spell that causes Michael to hop like a frog, maniacally splashing in the fountain until the police have to haul him out.\u003cbr\u003eWhen he recovers from this trance, Michael knows that he has encountered a true magician, one whose secrets he will give anything to understand. But this is black magic, mysterious and deadly, and pursuing it will mean a confrontation with an evil older than civilization itself.","brand":"Open Road Media","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47144638382320,"sku":"9781480442320","price":9.49,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781480442320_p0.jpg?v=1763619811","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781480442320","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
