THE ORLOJ OF LONDON

Fourth in the Orloj Wizards Saga

*London has no grand astronomical clock-or so the world believes. But six young wizards, fresh from challenges in Prague, Venice, and Paris, sense a hidden Orloj pulsing beneath Big Ben's iconic face. Shadows stir by the Thames as illusions weave through the city's ancient streets... and an old enemy rises from the depths.

Can the Harlequins master the virtues that each new trial demands-Generosity to conquer greed, Perseverance to outlast sloth, Humility to shatter pride? Or will the Dark Goblin finally feast on their flaws?

Join Blunt, Reddish, Firee, Checkered, Breezie, and Greenie on a race against time through a Parallel London teeming with secret portals, ghostly mentors, and cunning illusions. Their final confrontation looms in the Tower of London. The stakes? Nothing less than transcending the limits of Master Wizardry and safeguarding the Orloj's ancient magic.

Unlock London's hidden clockwork and discover if courage and unity can outshine even the strongest illusions.

The Orloj of London is the fourth volume in a saga that follows six young wizards-often called the Harlequins-on a quest to master moral virtues and magical prowess in major European cities. Previous books covered Prague, Venice, and Paris; London is the culminating challenge in which the protagonists must face illusions linked to their own internal flaws. Although the city has no single famous astronomical clock, the story reveals a "hidden Orloj" bound to Big Ben and to illusions scattered throughout the metropolis.

Where previous volumes established the heroes as Apprentice Wizards, Young Wizards, and finally Master Wizards, The Orloj of London revolves around their attempt to ascend beyond Master Wizardry into the rank of Orloj Wizard.
