About This Book

Odyssey is the first installment of the Odyssey Cycle, also known as the Mirari Saga, set in the expansive Magic: The Gathering universe. Released in 2001, this novel marked the beginning of a new era of Magic storytelling after the long-running Weatherlight Saga concluded.

The book introduces readers to Dominaria’s new conflicts, centering around the mysterious and dangerous artifact known as the Mirari, which drives much of the cycle’s drama.

Moore’s writing introduces readers to Kamahl, a barbarian fighter who becomes central to the unfolding epic. His journey is one of raw power, difficult choices, and the dangerous allure of the Mirari artifact — a force capable of reshaping reality itself. For collectors, this volume holds special significance as the first entry in the Odyssey Cycle, making it a must-have for completing the trilogy alongside Chainer’s Torment and Judgment.

Whether you’re a longtime fan of MTG lore or simply a collector seeking rare novels tied to the game’s most iconic sets, Odyssey is both a compelling read and a valuable collectible.
