Kasey is a hired assassin with orders to assassinate the Israeli Prime Minister. Betrayed, Kasey must escape before she is captured. As she crosses an archway in the Prime Minister's basement she realizes she has crossed much more than the threshold of a door - rather a portal.

As these three unlikely companions join forces on Musterion, they must find their way through an ever changing maze, fight their inner demons, and then escape to a new world, Soterion, before the forces of evil close in on them. There Kasey is given a sword that was once a Bible on earth. They must take the sword to a carpenter but the Great Red Dragon tries to prevent them.

Rise of the Magi is filled with battle action, steampunk fantasy, and a touch of romance, It's an epic tale of their search for truth and ultimately redemption.
