Overview
In a world where magic is as common as cars and toasters, there is bound to be some talented miscreants who like using magic for mischief. Someone like Adam Taylor, a passive-aggressive loner who views the world through a fog-covered lens. He prefers his own company and only wants to learn the magic arts to become powerful ... but when he is threatened by the beautiful "lady in the mirror," he must gain strength through love and friendship to overcome her. Or die trying.
Description
Meet Adam Taylor. He is a black mage: a magic-wielder who draws power from the essence of shadows. He is also a loner who prefers only his own company and dreams of power simply to make a living with it. He shuns and pushes away others, making him an extremely rude and antisocial miscreant. On the inside, though, he is a sensitive soul who doesn't quite know the meaning of love and friendship. Gene London, meanwhile, is a famous attorney who has a knack for defending difficult cases. He is also a government lobbyist who speaks to lawmakers on behalf of corporations (a normally legal profession as long as he doesn't give lawmakers luxurious gifts ... which he regularly does). Lately, he's been seeing a mysterious person whom he calls "the lady in the mirror." This lady claims she is trapped in another dimension, and she says that if London finds a way to free her, she will be his forevermore. Little did Adam know, on the day he did something foolish and horrific, that he was setting himself on a course to a meeting with the dastardly Gene London ... and setting in motion a series of events that will change him for better or worse.
