Wisdom Chronicles #1
Wizard Of Wisdom
The elves are long gone but the magic is not, and not all of it is benign.
Enter Wil who arrives at his sixty-fifth birthday after a directionless, purposeless, friendless lifetime, and finally finds a place where he feels at home working as assistant to the swineherd of the little village of Wisdom which sits close against the Old Forest, last home of the elves prior to their departure.
On the other side of the Principality of Gleneagle, the wizard Greyleige has been hoarding the world’s magics with the intent of achieving control over the world and the eternal life of the departed elves.
The ruling prince’s daughter, Princess Caron, has become convinced that Greyleige is the danger to the balance of good and evil in the world that was foretold in the family scrolls which were written by their elven ancestors prior to their departure centuries before.
Fate has put Wil, Caron, Scrubby and Greyleige on a collision course that will determine whether or not evil will overbalance goodness and condemn the world to a future of endless terror and despair.
