About the Book

Edgar fell asleep at his desk writing a for-loop and woke up in a world where magic is real, organized by a Guild that has been doing it wrong for four hundred years, and governed by an Archduke who would very much like to be the only person allowed to do it at all.

This is, by any reasonable metric, not Edgar's problem.

Edgar is a programmer. He has glasses that don't stay up, a caffeine dependency that predates his bachelor's degree, and a Dial - a thing he built in forty-seven sleepless hours as a hobby project - that has somehow become the most disruptive object in a world he didn't know existed until last Tuesday. The local magic has taken one look at Edgar and decided he's interesting, which is the kind of compliment that tends to come with severe consequences.

He has a mentor who teaches by asking questions she already knows the answer to. A nemesis who can fold space in ways that make his stomach unhappy. A talking deer who speaks to perhaps four people per century and has, for reasons it hasn't explained, decided he's one of them.

What he doesn't have is a way home. Or, increasingly, a clear reason to look for one - because the Archduke's thirty-year plan to monopolize all magic is nearly complete, and Edgar's Dial is the one variable it can't account for.

The Wizard's Code is a novel about the thing that happens when you realize your hobby project has been running in production this whole time - in a system considerably larger than the one you designed it for.



About the Author :
William Andy Hainline currently lives in New Albany, Indiana with a big old lazy tomcat named Beau, where in his spare time he practices being a supervillain and an English major, and he dabbles in computer science and general science, philosophy, comics, and filmjmaking. He is constantly coming up with new and exciting ways to butcher the English language, but his favorite way to do so is writing novels. He enjoys science-fiction, fantasy, and horror, and is a sucker for grand, romantic musicals. When he isn't plotting to take over the world, he spends most of his free time reading, writing, hanging out with friends, and tinkering with his copy of Unreal Engine. (Which is totally not a euphemism for something else.) Some of his favorite toys include Adobe Photoshop, various I clients, and the best writing program in the world, Scrivener. He is a big fan of Babylon 5, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Fringe, and Doctor Who, and he is active on Facebook.
