This is the reissue of the long out-of-print Weird Luck in the City of the Watcher, originally written in 2003 and published in 2012. The intricately interwoven books of the City of the Watcher trilogy take place a few months before the opening of the Weird Luck webcomic. In this first book we follow Aleck, a teenage stoner from Earth, as he stumbles through a portal into a world of strange sorcery. He soon finds himself swept up in a revolutionary movement fueled by mysterious prophecies which, absurdly, seem to include Aleck himself. As Aleck's skepticism grows, he travels through a half-ruined magical city with an insurrectionary vanguard including a feral shapeshifter, a cannibal warrior-prophet, and Akaz the fire-breathing wolf-god. Their adventures lead to an explosive climax, which we revisit in books two and three of the trilogy, showing the events from wildly different points of view, each retroactively revising the reader's impressions of the last.
