There are some sexually explicit scenes but these are short and a fundamental part of the story 'the sexual act creates magical essence'.

My conscience is clear over the statements on religion. I have no doubt that I am not the first to say that 'Gaia' is the soul of the Earth and is an agent of the creator. However, I may be the first to say that 'worship is not required; respect is everything. Ignore God and Gaia at your peril.'

'The Science of Magic' is exactly what it says. It is my take on how 'real magic' might be treated as a science.

The story is about Samantha, a young woman who is starting a new contract as an Analyst/Programmer. Her exposure to real magic pushes her to use her programming skills in ways she could never have dreamed. Now she must cope with the demand for her new skills and the seduction by the volatile and mercurial Merlin. Yes. This is the Merlin of the old legends; he is blessed with long life; in his case - several millennia.

A magic user must have several partners to create the essential magical essence. Merlin have several favourites and one of them, Angel, is in trouble. Samantha is manoeuvred into helping Angel.
