The Mask And The Master

The Regents of Delia are on high alert after the attempt on Princess Naomi's life. And the pressure is on Petronaut Horace Lundin to demonstrate what his new Spell Box can do. But it's one setback after another as he tries to settle in with a new squad, please the public, and weather protests from the wizards.

Outside Delia, a reclusive group called the Golden Caravan is spreading high-tech weapons and a message of revolution. Delia's Petronauts enter a fight for their lives as they go toe-to-toe with the Caravan, and find there’s more to the masked warriors—and their mysterious master— than they bargained for.

Lundin and his technicians soon find themselves on the front lines of that fight. Someone on the other side of the battlefield has taken an interest in mechanized wizardry.

And they’ll do whatever it takes to get their hands on Horace Lundin; even if it means bringing the whole region closer to war…

"[Ben Rovik] does a beautiful job...The tension and action is well-paced... the characters are distinct from each other and relatable." --Mike Reeves-McMillan, author of 'City of Masks'
