The War Against the Assholes

Contemporary fantasy meets true crime when schools of ancient sorcery go up against the art of the long con in this stunningly entertaining debut fantasy novel.

Mike Wood is satisfied just being a guy with broad shoulders at a decidedly unprestigious Catholic school in Manhattan. But on the dirty streets of New York City hes an everyman with a moral code who is unafraid of violence. And when Mike is unwittingly recruited into a secret cell of magicians by a fellow student, Mikes role as a steadfast soldier begins. These magicians dont use ritualized rote to work their magic, they use willpower in their clandestine war with the establishment: The Assholes.
