Exceptionally well written, and the 'veracity' is terrific.

Magic Time takes up where The Stand leaves off. Taut writing, interesting characters, fascinating situations-they all make me eagerly look forward to the next installment in this saga.

-- "Harry Turtledove, New York Times bestselling author"

Magic Time is a great book! A bold and original science fantasy that, by the end, creates a brand new genre all its own. Epic, believable, and very, very cool. When's the movie coming out?

-- "Brannon Braga, co-creator of the Star Trek series Enterprise"

The fuse has been lit on a fantastic new epic series. Vivid, imaginative, emotional-Magic Time is a blockbuster summer movie pressed between book covers. I'd urge you to prepare yourself, but I fear there's no way you can.

-- "Rockne S. O'Bannon, creator of Farscape"

A great read! Even non-science fiction fans will find themselves caught up in this ambitious and exciting story. This is fantasy with heart and soul. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

"One of the most interesting and promising new fantasy series to come along."

Reseña del editor

For rising young lawyer Cal Griffin, it's just another day in the Big City-until the lights go off ... for good. Suddenly packs of pale crouched figures are stalking the darkened subways, monsters prowl Times Square, and the people all around Cal are ... changing. Similar weirdness is happening everywhere, from the dank, cold heart of a West Virginia coal mine to a remote lab in South Dakota-where a team of government scientists has unwittingly invited something catastrophic into the world-to the highest levels of power in Washington, DC. And Cal Griffin is not the only one struggling to comprehend the surreal, devouring chaos surrounding him-nor the only one who will be forced to accept a new role in this brave new world of nightmare and wonder. For the forces bled from the stilled machines are fueling a consciousness both newly born and ancient, and more than one unlikely hero will be needed for the titanic battle between the darkness and the light.
