When eighteen‑year‑old Mikey Garcia stumbles onto a mysterious computer game called The Grimoire App, he thinks he’s found a fun magic-based first-person shooter/adventure. Instead, the in-game magic affects him in real life. He learns that magic runs on rules, risks, and exploits — and someone has already started breaking them.

As Mikey learns to “debug” spells and dodge magical surveillance, he uncovers a threat that reaches far beyond Tucson. Someone is turning mind-controlled gamers into their own personal army, and Mikey might be the only one who can stop them.

The Grimoire Hack is book one of the Tech-Arcana Dichotomy series, where we learn that magic is science we don’t yet understand, and science is magic we do.

Set in modern‑day Tucson, The Grimoire Hack blends Southwest culture, wry humor, and a magical‑tech system built on rules, exploits, and consequences.
