After his magician grandmother dies, Edison Rooker is declared unmagical by the Magical Consortium and exiled from the only home he's known. Antonia Hex, the powerful sorceress running a call center for magical emergencies, gives him a job and a new name, Rook, putting his invention, a magic-detecting device called the Spell Binder, to real use. Across town, the apprentice sorcerer Sun is learning the trade under the equally overworked Fable, freeing ordinary people from jinxes and curses. When their mentors get into trouble, Rook and Sun, rivals who can't stand each other, have to team up to save them, and figure out what to do about the spark between them along the way. F.T. Lukens plays it as a lively, campy, grumpy-sunshine YA romance with a magical-emergency-hotline premise.
