The Orloj of Boston, The Orloj series: Vol. 5

By Erasmus Cromwell-Smith II

In the heart of Boston, where history whispers and magic still breathes, six young wizards-Blunt, Reddish, Firee, Checkered, Breezie, and Greenie-face their greatest challenge yet. Rumors of a Dark Goblin and a hidden Orloj-a cosmic clock buried beneath the city's ancient streets-draw them into a web of illusions capable of tearing at reality itself.

From the golden cobblestones of Cedar Rapids to the ancient gears of Bern's Zytglogge, the Harlequins face trials that test not only their gifts-Wall-Crawling, Invisibility, Lie Detection-but also their virtues. Humility, courage, and empathy will be their only defense against a corrupt wizard whose cloak weaves division and despair.

As illusions distort the truth and time folds in on itself, they must forge an unbreakable synergy to restore the Boston Clock and save a nation on the brink of collapse.

In this thrilling conclusion to the Harlequin saga, cosmic battles intertwine with the deepest reflections of the soul.

Will unity prevail over the darkest shadows, or will the specters that haunt the Boston sky prevail?

A tale of magic, redemption, and the enduring power of unity.

"No illusion can eclipse synergy. No dark shadow endures when virtues unite."

Their journey so far has spanned four legendary cities: Prague (age 12) - The Orloj awakens. Beneath the Vltava and up to Hradčany, the six learn humility, generosity, and compassion to master pride, envy, and greed, earning their first badges as Apprentices.Venice (age 13) - Under the clock of San Marco, they face betrayal and resentment with honesty, loyalty, and forgiveness, crossing an "endless bridge" to San Giorgio Maggiore and rising as Young Wizards.Paris (age 14) - A hidden Orloj at Notre Dame and a surreal double Eiffel Tower force them to choose respect, tolerance, and selflessness over arrogance, indifference, and willful deafness, graduating as Master Wizards.London (age 15) - An invisible Orloj behind Big Ben culminates in six trials at the Tower of London. By embodyinggenerosity, kindness, humility, perseverance, loyalty, and tenacity, they defeat despairing illusions and become Orloj Wizards.
