Magic leaves a mark on the mortal world in this set of 12 Christmas tales that follow Niels from his eighth Jul — the last year his family was whole — to his 21st. Tragedy, anger, and redemption shape his life as a foreign magic threatens those he loves most. Niels is the only one who can decide: Will he fall to its power or find his way home?

Niels Poulsen, self-styled God of Rock and lead singer in a popular punk band, has everything he could want: family, friends, fortune, and fame. When his best friend and fellow band member, Jace, goes missing, Niels will do anything to get him home safe. Niels discovers that their money and connections won’t help them on their journey. They will rely on an old model airplane, a family secret, and a tangled magic that weaves the band into the fabric of other realms so tightly they may never make it home again. Their quest takes them across new worlds, through foreign dangers, and straight into the path of an ancient prophecy that wants Niels for itself. If Niels and his friends survive long enough to find Jace and negotiate their way home to Manhattan, will it be worth the price? The magic says one of them will have to die…

The Dragons are about to realize that the end of the war didn’t mean happily ever after, and deep in the heart of their realm cluster, even greater forces lurk in the shadows. Will they find balance, or will they fail together?
