Galveston by Sean Stewart
In "Galveston," a once-thriving city is now split between two realities after a magical event known as the Flood. The city is divided between the Mardi Gras-like endless revelry of the supernatural "Fat Tuesday" and the grim existence of "Ash Wednesday," where life is harsh and magic is draining away. The protagonist, a former gambler named Josh Cane, navigates this dual existence, dealing with fantastical creatures, powerful magic, and human desires. As he becomes entangled in the complex politics and struggles of Galveston's inhabitants, he must confront his own demons and make difficult choices that will determine the fate of both realities.
