Alex loves magic: its glamour, tricks and illusions. He is good at it, too: he has reached the semifinals of a prestigious competition for young magicians. But when he stumbles into strange Mr Olmoss back garden while running from his former best friend, Alex sees something he cannot explain: three tiny flames floating in the air. Fire magic. Real magic. Soon, Alex and Mr Olmos are swept up in a great adventure of secrets, genies and an ancient, bitter rivalry.
