The Cage Of Starlight. The Magicians

Beauty can be a blessing. or a cage. When Blake Alexander returns to Japan with his wife, Angela, he hopes for peace. Instead, a single dance shatters the illusion he has lived behind for decades. His appearance spell fails - and the world sees the truth beneath his skin: a being made of starlight. Whispers spread. Fear rises. And a man known only as the Collector takes notice. Drawn into a world where beauty is hoarded like treasure and geishas vanish without a trace, Blake becomes the Collector's newest prize.
But the man behind the mask is more than a legendary geisha. More than an immortal sorcerer. More than the myths written about him. He is Hoshi no Michi - the Starlight Shinobi - and the shadows he once buried are rising again. As old enemies return and destiny tightens its grip, Blake must confront the past he swore he'd never face. before it claims him, Angela, and everyone he loves. A tale of moonlight, masks, obsession, and the cost of being seen, The Cage of Starlight is a haunting companion story in the Magicians Universe - where beauty is power, and power always comes with a price.
