The Prince of the Air

The Memoirs of a Contemporary Wizard

By: Mason Winfield

Narrated by: Mason Winfield

A wizard without a wand. A smuggler of secrets. A man out of time.

Eric Hawthorne Wood isn’t the kind of wizard you’d find in a fantasy novel—no robes, no spells, no dramatic theatrics. He’s more like an aging James Bond with a touch of the arcane. His job? Escort priceless, powerful, and sometimes perilous objects through the shadows of the modern world, where magic isn’t a myth—it’s a well-guarded secret.

Operating under the radar of everyday society, Wood serves a clandestine community of long-lived, hidden-in-plain-sight Western wizards who call themselves “the College.” His assignments are simple: don’t ask questions, don’t attract attention, and don’t let the wrong people get their hands on the wrong things. But in a world where ancient powers shift like tectonic plates, even a small mistake can unravel centuries of carefully brokered peace.

Haunted by the past and navigating a life that feels increasingly out of sync, Wood walks the razor’s edge between old-world magic and modern-day chaos. When a job goes sideways, he’s forced into a tangled web of supernatural politics, cryptic alliances, and metaphysical peril—where nothing is as it seems and everything has a price.

Wry, intelligent, and quietly thrilling, this is the beginning of a modern fantasy unlike any you’ve listened to.

Fans of The Magicians, John Wick, and The X-Files will find themselves spellbound.
