Dopo "L'alchimista" arriva "Il mago". In California, nelle mani del mago John Dee e dei signori delle tenebre, il libro del mago Abramo potrebbe significare la fine del mondo così come lo conosciamo. Il Codex, il libro più potente di tutti i tempi, contiene i segreti della vita eterna e molti altri pericoli che, se utilizzati da alcuni, possono causare danni irreparabili. Dee è a sole due pagine dal rituale finale che restituirà ai poteri antichi il dominio sugli uomini e sulla terra. Gli unici in grado di fermarlo, Josh e Sofie Newman, si trovano a 1300 chilometri di distanza. A Parigi, dopo la fuga da Ojai, Nikolas, Sofie, Josh e Scatty si ritrovano nella città dei neon e nella casa di Nikolas. Purtroppo, il suo ritorno non è affatto tranquillo. Niccolò Machiavelli, filosofo immortale e collezionista d'arte, vive a Parigi e lavora per John Dee. Insegue la sua preda con determinazione, mentre il tempo per Nikolas e Perenele scorre inesorabilmente. Ogni giorno invecchiano di un anno, le loro capacità si indeboliscono e il loro corpo si deteriora. Flamel non dubita più della profezia sui gemelli e Sofie deve essere iniziata alla magia di un nuovo elemento: il fuoco. Un uomo può insegnarglielo, il conte de Saint-Germain, ex allievo di Flamel, alchimista, mago e attualmente rockstar.
