Synopsis: - Following a fatal encounter with John Constantine and a strange errand to Faerie, the mysterious author of The Books of Magic comes to Earth, seeking to warn Timothy Hunter about the grave threat to come. But other, more earthly changes are descending on Tim — a new house, a new school — and he finds he cannot escape the childhood magic he thought he'd left behind.
