What if everything you learned about magic was a lie?
Randy Wolf thought dropping out of the world's most elite magic school was his biggest failure. He was wrong.
At just fourteen years old, Randy finds himself working the assembly lines at Madkey, the legendary institution where modern magic was born. While his former classmates master spells and attend feasts, Randy kneads dough and serves food. It's humiliating. But it's also his chance to stay close to the only place he's ever wanted to be.
Then Randy discovers a secret that changes everything.
His friend Tad is a Chaotic, a practitioner of the dangerous, unpredictable magic that was supposedly defeated nearly a century ago. But the Chaotics didn't attack on Victory Day. They were attacked. By none other than Headmaster Lanctin Boltstar, the greatest wizard of all time.
Boltstar didn't just defeat the Chaotics. He rewrote history by manipulating Womigia, the collective memory that shapes what every magician knows to be true. For generations, magicians have believed a carefully constructed lie. And now Boltstar is hunting down the last Chaotics to eliminate the truth forever.
To stop him, Randy must learn the forbidden magic.
Chaotic magic doesn't rely on memorization or following instructions. It flows from instinct, emotion, and personal truth. For a dropout who never fit the mold of traditional magic, it might be exactly what he needs. But mastering it means questioning everything he's been taught, betraying the institution he loves, and standing against the most powerful wizard alive.
