Wizard S Bane

Wizard's Bane is the first book of The Sojourn Chronicles, six books that recount the adventures of Dale, a member of a large space fleet, who is marooned on a world similar to 18th-century Earth. He discovers very quickly that being stranded is the least of his problems; the world he is on is about to be destroyed and he's the only one that can save it. Without any clear direction, or the tools to do so, he sets out to try, encountering magic, mayhem and chaos at every turn. Wizard's Bane has received rave reviews and even been compared to the Shadow Trilogy by George Lucas.

Wizard's Bane is on the warpath. The seditious young centaurs have become a force to be reckoned with, slaughtering wizards and sowing dissent within the fey. When opposition threatens to thwart their plans, they abduct dragonlings to frame their enemies at the risk of causing a full scale dragon war. Jedediah is lost, thrusting his Guardian mantle onto his apprentices. Haunted by demons wearing Lanea's smile, Drake abandons Jordan in favor of drunken Cherry Coke oblivion. Desperate for Jedediah's help, Drake gambles all on a cross-country flight to enlist his mother's help only to fall prey to Wizard's Bane. Pre-teens desperate for protection besiege Jordan. Faced with needy adolescents and centaurs, Zero's dragon slayer and church ladies armed with holy water, Jordan struggles to keep everyone alive while scouring Jedediah's properties to find him. Can Jordan and Drake persevere with war on the horizon, or will the Wizard's Bane write victory songs in their blood?

Q: How does a shanghaied computer geek conquer all the forces of Darkness and win the love of the most beautiful witch in the world? A: By transforming himself from a demon programmer into a programmer of demons! It all began when the wizards of the White League were under attack by their opponents of the Black League and one of their most powerful members cast a spell to bring forth a mighty wizard to aid their cause. What the spell delivered was master hacker Walter "Wiz" Zumwalt. The wizard who cast the spell was dead and nobody¾ not the elves, not the dwarves, not even the dragons¾could figure out what the shanghaied computer nerd was good for. But spells are a lot like computer programs, and, in spite of the Wiz's unprepossessing appearance, he was going to defeat the all-powerful Black League, win the love of a beautiful red-haired witch, and prove that when it comes to spells and sorcery, nobody but nobody can beat a Silicon Valley computer geek!

Fey both beautiful and vicious hide in the Georgia backwoods, guarded by four-hundred-year-old peanut farmer, bootlegger, and wizard Jedediah Shine. Protecting humanity and the fey from one another is normally child's play compared to teaching magic to his new foster daughter and a Cherry Coke addicted dragonling, parenting an out-of-control half-elven teen sorceress or keeping his jealous elven ex-lover away from his new girlfriend. Jedediah's delicate balancing act is thrown into turmoil when rebellious, young centaurs launch a genocidal war against humanity from within his borders. At the same time, a vengeful mercenary company lays a trail of suspicious murders directly to Jedediah's door. Unwitting pawns to a deeper menace, both serve a centuries-long plot to steal magic's deepest secret. The bloody conflict thrusts Jedediah's family into Death's reach. As the body bag count rises and law enforcement closes in, Jedediah is forced to make desperate choices to protect his loved ones and magic itself by stopping the murders in his wood.

Enjoy satire? I guess you do, otherwise you wouldn't have landed here... Landos. A chaotic, multi-species, semi-evolved mire inhabited by a kaleidoscope of comical and devious characters. A wizard is murdered in a desperate attempt at stalling the progress of invention, randomly throwing an innocent into the middle of an age-old conflict after he 'inherits' the old trickster's puzzling map. With the drawing as his only guide, Svelt reluctantly begins searching for the unnamed artefact. But he is not alone... A determined, ruthless 'messenger' heaven-bent on preventing it from being discovered. And an ancient, mischievous, time-travelling soul resurrected by a powerful sorceress, 'aiding' the confused soul along the way. Unwanted attention in Landos isn't conducive to life expectancy much beyond lunchtime... particularly for a dwarf troll. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ "Lovely humorous fantasy." - DJD (Amazon UK) ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ "A Surprisingly Heartfelt but Humorously Un-Epic Fantasy Novel." - Mark Cromwell (Amazon US)
