'TO PULL OFF A MIRACLE, HE'LL HAVE TO MASTER THE IMPOSSIBLE.
'Welcome to Bezim, where tribes of sword-slinging bravi race through the night, and rich and idle alchemists make magic out of mixing and measuring the four planes of reality.
'Siyon Velo scrapes a living hopping between the planes of reality to harvest ingredients for the city's alchemists. But when Siyon accidentally commits an act of impossible magic, he's catapulted into the limelight - which is a bad place to be when the planes themselves start lurching out of alignment, threatening to send the city into the sea.
'Now Siyon, along with the distractingly handsome Izmirlian Hisarani, might be the city's only hope.' (Publication summary)
