Bookburners

Things have changed for the Vatican’s magic-fighting Team Three: their forces are depleted, and internal rifts are coming close to tearing this close-knit group apart. But some things never change. Magic still threatens to overwhelm our world, and when a startling appearance from Menchú’s past reveals new dimensions to this danger, the team will have to reassess their loyalties—to their jobs, their beliefs, and even to each other.

Previously on Bookburners

Asanti was put on trial for using magic to fight magic—she expected to martyr herself, but Menchú made an unexpected sacrifice to save her. Their friendship, once strong, was shaken. Cardinal Fox ordered Asanti to shift her focus, to figure out how to kill magic, rather than manipulate it. But Asanti wasn’t the only one who believed that magic held the key to saving our world, and she secretly formed a new version of Team Four with Perry and Frances, despite Frances’s newly betentacled state after a run-in with Network-created magic.
