Now, with one of history’s most infamous tyrants yapping in his headset, Zack must journey across China to heist magical artifacts and defeat figures from history and myth, all while learning to wield the emperor’s incredible water dragon powers.Īnd if Zack can’t finish the mission in time, the spirits of the underworld will flood into the mortal realm, and he could lose his mom forever. The mission takes an immediate wrong turn when the First Emperor botches his attempt to possess Zack’s body and binds to Zack’s AR gaming headset instead, leading to a battle where Zack’s mom’s soul gets taken by demons. So Zack is woefully unprepared when he discovers he was born to host the spirit of the First Emperor of China for a vital mission: sealing the leaking portal to the Chinese underworld before the upcoming Ghost Month blows it wide open. His single mom was busy enough making sure they got by, and his schools never taught anything except Western history and myths. Zachary Ying never had many opportunities to learn about his Chinese heritage. ![]() ![]() ![]() Included in Introduction to Magic are instructions for creating an etheric double, speaking words of power, using fragrances, interacting with entities, and creating a "magical chain."

Enigma Babylon lasted until Peter Mathews was assassinated by the ten subpotentates at the time of the Global Gala and was immediately dissolved, replaced by Carpathianism. ![]() (This latter belief is contrasted by Scripture that states that all have sinned and fell short of God's glory in Romans.) It was led by former Roman Catholic archbishop Peter Mathews, who was nominated into the role as Pontifex Maximus and then later adopted the simpler Pope Peter the Second. ![]() It was an interfaith group that believed that all religions were valid pathways to God, though it condemned the Bible's message that Jesus Christ is the only way to God as heresy, and also encouraged the belief that there was inherent goodness in every person.

But then again, I am a bit of a watering pot! In the end, the barriers that have to be overcome are more mental than physical, and the estrangement between our couple doesn’t last as long as I had feared. While Katy particularly, deals with the aftermath, it was emotional and I found myself sympathising so acutely with her that I found myself weeping on occasion. ![]() And when it drops - even though you know it’s coming - it still packs an emotional punch. It’s fantastically well written as while we revel in the joy of how happy our couple are, you know something big is coming and that gives you that tension of just waiting. For the first while in this story, all is right in Richard and Katy’s lives. You’ll also be missing out on a fantastic story. You have to have read The Contract before this one or you will have no background on Richard and Katy, or what they went through to find each other. As you can tell, this book is not a standalone. ![]() ![]() In my head, Richard, Katy and their family are happy - did I really want to read about a problem in their marriage that could destroy them? I mean, I knew it would be alright in the end but did I want that trauma in my life? I decided to suck it up and just go for it. Having enjoyed and adored both The Contract and then The Baby Clause, I knew that I had to read the next in Richard and Katy’s story, The Amendment. ![]() |
