I know how to be careful. I cast the legal spells. I alter my hair and create clothing. I race only in the legal races. Unfortunately, none of it was enough to protect my family. Honestly, everything was already falling apart when I met the aliens. The mage who unlocked the magic I can’t control. The telepath who gave me hope we could find other planets. The insane oracle I probably shouldn’t ...

We live in times where we wield unprecedented power over our surroundings, and much seems possible in the future. In 1962 science fiction writer Arthur C. Clarke formulated his famous Three Laws, of which the third law is: "Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic." It could be said we live in magical times.

Today we have current fictional pop culture wizards like Gandalf and Dumbledore. But in the past, this type of ...
