James Quill: Wizard of Fortune
When young wizard James Quill lives through The Great Wizard World War, he thinks he has it made. Although war claimed his friends, he survived. His wrecked, flying Harley is returned to him de-cubed and better than new.
But he wonders just how ”over” the war truly is when he is sent into The Wizard Protection Program by The World Wizarding Federation and the U.S. Enlightenment Department (U.S.E.D.). Bucksnorts School and Home for the Wizarding Arts and Sciences is the armpit of the magical universe, hidden in a long and best-forgotten cavern in western Virginia. Drawn into a dangerous plot against his will, he has been sent into oblivion, but will it alone save him?
Tortured visions haunt his nights and torment his meditations. Are these scenes fated premonitions of a gory death at the hands of his vanquished enemies, or do they reveal that he is losing the only thing a wizard ever needs: his mind? Quill also manages to make a new, Native American enemy, a vampire/shaman and master of dark sorcery who makes his old enemies look quaint. Will the curses of the dark mages, long-dead find their mark with The Black Javelin or will it be the vampire/shaman who will take a pitiless revenge?
Go on an international adventure of magic, treachery and mayhem as James Quill, wizard and young master of the magical martial arts becomes embroiled in a plot of love and hate, armed with only his talent for survival, the love of a Native American shamaness and the courage of a warrior’s heart. Read how he becomes the nexus of three great wizarding traditions, conjuring knowledge from all in his quest. Be there as he learns the hidden and forbidden knowledge only known to wizarding adepts.
Writer and artist, B.B. Richmond has included 11 illustrations, including a map of the Town of Buckbilge and Bucksnorts. James Quill: Wizard of Fortune is often humorous but always intense, with spies, sorcerers and treachery around every corner.
