      <image:title>Home - The Magician's Sin</image:title>
      <image:caption>Titan City: 1933 Anson Walker is a retired-wizard-turned-monster-hunter who can't die. It's a curse, really. One that can only be reversed during the Aberration, a magic event that occurs once every seventy years. Exhausted by the centuries and jaded with life, Anson plans to take advantage of the upcoming Aberration to end his unnatural existence. That all changes with the disappearance of Dixie Dupree, Anson's ex-wife. When Dixie's daughter recruits him to find her mother, Anson can't turn her away. And as he searches for his former love, he discovers that he's not quite as ready to die as he thought. Click Here to Get Your Copy Today!
