June Hayward on parikymppinen opiskelija, jonka haaveet kirjailijan urasta eivät tahdo lähteä lentoon. Kun hänen ihailemansa – ja samalla inhoamansa – lahjakas opiskelutoveri Athena Liu menehtyy kesken illanvieton, June ei voi vastustaa kiusausta: hän varastaa kiinalais-amerikkalaisen toverinsa käsikirjoituksen ja tarjoaa sitä julkaistavaksi omissa nimissään.Hän saa valtavan ennakkomaksun, paljon huomiota ja vaikeita kysymyksiä ratkottavaksi. Kuka saa kirjoittaa kenestä, kuinka suhtautua kyyniseen kustannusmaailmaan, miten pystyy peittämään jälkensä – ja miksi hän on näkevinään Athenan edelleen hengissä?

Alicella on ollut vain yksi tavoite: tulla huippututkijaksi analyyttisen magian alalla. Hän on uhrannut kaiken sen eteen: ylpeytensä, rakkauselämänsäja mielenterveytensä. Piiskana menestykseen on toiminut akateemisen maailman kärkimaagikko Jacob Grimes, joka nyt on kuollut. Syy Grimesin kuolemaan on Alicen, jolla ei ole muuta mahdollisuutta kuin mennä manalaan hakemaan Grimes takaisin elävien kirjoihin, sillä ilman Grimesin kirjoittamaa suositusta Alicen virkaura yliopistossa tyssää. Mukaan manalan matkalle livahtaa Alicen pahin haastaja, ärsyttävän tietoviisas Peter. Pitääkö Alicen kilpailla vielä manalassakin siitä, kuka saa elintärkeän suosituksen?Katabasis on fantasiakirja maagisesta yliopistomaailmasta ja satiiri verisestä kilpailusta, jota yliopistomaailmassa pärjääminen vaatii. Se on koukuttava seikkailutarina, vastentahtoinen romanssi ja kirjallisuusviittauksia tuntevalle loputon aarrearkku.
