It is the turn of the century and night is falling on the last days of the old west. The wild years of settling the frontier with a rifle in one hand and a spell book in the other are at an end. But the magicians of the Old West are not going down without a fight. Tallis Bertrand is a young man of the back lines of the growing conflict, trapped in a dead end job, struggling to work for a cause he doesn't believe in, and dreaming of something. Tallis' wishes are granted in the worst possible way when he is betrayed and finds himself on the wrong side of the law. The battle lines are drawn between cold civilization, and the wild world of magic, and Tallis is forced to choose a side. Whether he fights for the old ways or chooses to stand with the new, one thing is certain, his world will never be the same.
