It's never a dull day, being the last king of Britain's magicians, and before this bloody day is through, Combat Magician William Gravel will be rocked to the foundations of his beliefs. After his systematic elimination of the members of both the Minor Seven and the Major Seven, Gravel now stands supreme. He's reformed the Minor Seven, filling their ranks with young, working-class occult detectives, but their powers and Gravel's own leadership skills are about to be put to the test when a twisted, demented magician who didn't make the cut decides to show Gravel the error of passing him up. Meanwhile, the British government breathes heavily down Gravel's neck as the civilian body count rises. But is Downing Street's concern solely for public safety related to Bible Jack's terrorist attacks on London, or is it something more politically-motivated?

Résumé
- It's never a dull day, being the last king of Britain's magicians, and
before this bloody day is through, Combat Magician William Gravel will be rocked
to the foundations of his beliefs. After his systematic elimination of the
members of both the Minor Seven and the Major Seven, Gravel now stands supreme.
He's reformed the Minor Seven, filling their ranks with young, working-class
occult detectives, but their powers and Gravel's own leadership skills are about
to be put to the test when a twisted, demented magician who didn't make the cut
decides to show Gravel the error of passing him up. Meanwhile, the British
government breathes heavily down Gravel's neck as the civilian body count rises.
But is Downing Street's concern solely for public safety related to Bible Jack's
terrorist attacks on London, or is it something more
politically-motivated?
