nedTitle: Stranger Things Have Happed

Author: Jeff Strand

Publisher: Sourcebooks Fire

Release Date: April 1st 2017

Jeff Strand pulls another winner out of his hat with this hilarious tale of illusions and self-discovery

At 15, Marcus Millian III, the great-grandson of the famous Zachary the Stupendous, is already a talented illusionist. But when Marcus chokes during a card trick and leaves the audience unimpressed, prideful Zachary promises that he and Marcus are working on an illusion that will shock, stun, and astonish. That night, Zachary dies in his sleep.

To uphold the honor of Marcus's beloved great-grandfather, the show must go on, and Marcus will need to make a shark disappear in front of everybody. It would take a sorcerer to pull this off, but, hey, Marcus is the next best thing…right?
