The Book of Living Magic is a game by Jonas Kyratzes (Alphaland, House at Desert Bridge).

The purpose of the congress between us, contained in this article and the comments that follow, should not be persuasive on either side — it should be analytic, intensely focused on details and uniformly agreed on its desired outcome.
