A modern day retelling of The Sorcerer's Apprentice, set in New York City, Night Magic is a mesmerizing novel of ancient secrets and black magic, a story of the occult by the bestselling author of such horror classics as Harvest Home and The Other. Drawing on the parallel story The Sorcerer's Apprentice, Tom Tryon has fashioned a spellbinding contemporary novel of an ambitious, sometimes overzealous young man who grasps the lure dangled before him, and who finds that real magic has no mercy.
