Rough Magicke (2005)
In the fall of 1992, Annandale Military Academy seems safe enough, tucked behind the corn-silk curtain in rural Indiana; yet its chaplain, Jonathan Mears, with unexpected help from students and colleagues, confronts a series of magical threats, beginning with the centuries-old challenge of a sorcerers’ feud within his own family, and ending in a confrontation with danger passed on from Imperial Rome. Science fiction author and astrophysicist Mike Brotherton comments: “Intellectual and literary, Rough Magicke juxtaposes the arcane and the sacred while providing a glimpse of the divine.”
