Having been a fan of Steve Orlando’s Under Tow, I was looking forward to this title. It seemed like a return to his high concept sci-fi storytelling that I’m a fan of. Namesake is a very high concept. Portals to another planet open every seven years, and suddenly magic has spilled out onto earth. Firemen now are charged with dousing the flames of magical fires as well as normal fires.
