Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The stories you read change you. But what if those stories were literally magic? What if you found a television show that was both ancient and supernatural? What if you were the star of that magic TV show and you had no idea why? Mark is a former film student now stuck as a deli cashier. Hannah is a dissatisfied teenager obsessed with fantasy novels and unimpressed with real life. These two disaffected yet sympathetic characters are ripped away from their avenues of escape—fiction, pop culture, and legalized weed—and thrust into a world where giant media conglomerates commit supernatural corporate espionage and the few remaining members of an ancient magic race know as much about human pop culture as Quentin Tarantino. Full of insight, humor, humanity, action, and magic; Magic, Television, & Marijuana explores the consequences of the stories we grew up with and all the ways in which our media-driven world can change a person, for good or ill.
