Alternate Earth, where magic is truly a part of the world, woven into its fabric, society and life. Frenchman Alexandre Marcon, a graduate of Université de Paris, Ecole des Arts Magiques, finds himself nearly penniless on the streets of Bristol, trying to find a buyer for his invention, the perpetual light box only to find himself being turned away, until a Welsh engineer sees a potential in his work... This is the same world as George and a Dragon, maybe 50 years earlier.
