Professor Icarus Abbacus returns to the Nocturnal University, in search of the late Victoria’s daughter, Vicky Hendrickson. Armed with a grainy, black-and-white photo, all he knows is that she is most definitely alive and now in possession of her mother’s cursed amulet. As he starts investigating, he uncovers sightings of strange creatures, unusual by even supernatural standards; a playful humanoid octopus, a half-wolf, half-bat being and a weird spider were. Could these be some of Vicky’s new forms? He also learns about a gruesome murder, in which a werewolf’s body was found dumped in an alley minus all of its internal organs. Could Vicky have committed the awful crime in an attempt to discover what had happened to her? Also looking into the crime is the Nocturnal University’s formidable chief of police, Captain Butterworth, and he absolutely will not tolerate any interference from dusty old academics. Can Icarus, with the help of his friends Nigel, Muriel, Malcolm and Kim, keep out of the police’s way while using all the skills at his disposal to track down Vicky and maybe catch a killer?

Professor Albrecht Longenfang steps through the Great Cosmic Mirror to the Magick Earth, his mission to track down the alternate version of his lost love, Vulpina Vixen. He knows it’s a one-way trip and a silly idea as Vulpina is currently with Tobias, the alternate version of Toby Thompson, but he has to try. Finding Vulpina is easy. She is a disciple of High Priest Ruthan, at the Church of the Great Cosmic Mirror. Albrecht even gets the chance to tell her about the death of her Science Earth counterpart. But then he gets into a fight with Tobias and is banished from the church. He finds himself back out on the street, unsure what to do next. Then Millicent Jorgensen, meditating in front of a mirror, decides to cross over and join him. Unfortunately she has no way to return – save through the giant mirror at the church. Realising he has an obligation to look after his former student, Albrecht takes her back to the church. But High Priest Ruthan and his disciples have tired of simply lurking in the shadows, hiding from the authorities while trying to recruit new followers. The time has come to act, to finally bring Magick and Science together. And Caroline “Karuna” Collins believes she has figured out the way.

Finally, the Australian Nocturnal Academy has won the rights to host the 312th Nightmare Games – a gruelling series of contests designed to pit supernaturals against each other and test their abilities to the ultimate limit. Alice, Toby, Carla and Milly are competitors in the games, along with six other students from their school, and ten from each of the other Nocturnal Academies. They must work together as well as compete against each other to get through each event. But there’s a threat. According to the Professor Abbacus, the new technical assistant to the Nightmare Games Organising Committee, there’s always a threat. Every Nightmare Games in recorded history has been attacked, in some way or another, by demons from the Immaterium. Thus it’s only a matter of time before all hell breaks loose once more. Professor Abbacus warns everyone to be on their toes, to notify him the moment something unusual occurs. Unfortunately everything about the competition is unusual, from flying races, were triathlons and elemental displays to the bizarre medieval ball-game known as Kranquoix. Thus a mysterious increase in plant-growth across the area goes almost unnoticed. Can Alice, her friends, Professor Abbacus and his new assistant from Scotland, figure out what is going on before it's too late?
