Publisher's Synopsis
When everyone save the magicians of the land vanish . . . Rusty, a young illusionist trying to escape the memory of his dead mother, finds himself stranded a cruise ship headed to Alaska. He finds out that he isn't the only one aboard. He finds Mia, a mysterious girl entranced with fairy tales, and she tells him of a dark man also on the ship. Ling, a Chinese college graduate about to start a new job, arrives in Los Angeles moments before everyone vanishes. Planes fall from the sky, bursting into flames on the tarmac. After the smoke clears, Ling finds a mysterious white box with her name on it. Louis, a retired magician who recently lost his wife, hears explosions from downtown Chicago as he searches for answers. As he prepares to leave town, he also finds a box addressed to him. Jerry, a psychic that tries to keep his gift a secret, sees the horrors about to happen and attempts to flee New Mexico. The Beast has other plans for him. Drawn to the obscure Crossroads Motel in New Mexico, these magicians seek out false salvation from the mysterious Mister Hollow . . . Running parallel to the events in An Hour for Magic, Hollow be thy Name pushes the throttle all the way to the floor, shuttling humanity through its final days. Salvation is far from what is awaiting the magicians at the Crossroads. Their false prophet isn't coming for them. Doors to other realities and fire breathing dragons abound in this tale of psychological terror and mystery.
