Instead, her close friend Kit seems to be acting a little weird, and Nita keeps running into problems for which wizardry either isn’t the answer or else it’s the wrong one. How do you fix what can’t be fixed? Only the Transcendent Pig knows, and it’s not telling. But Nita needs to find out—and soon. Her wizardly partnership with Kit starts to fall apart. Much worse, her mother gets sick . . . so sick she may never leave the hospital.Only one person can help Nita—the One she’s devoted her life to fighting. “Powerful and satisfying.”—Kirkus Reviews (starred review) “A gripping and dynamic fantasy . . .

Pages : 169
Book Description
A Novelette, a Novella, and a Short Story Go into a Bar: Wizards and Wizdom. Erick is good with a sword, but he does not have the temperament to lead, and he refuses to follow. His military instructor counsels Erick that his best career choice is studying to become a wizard. All he needs is an agreeable mentor who can stay focused. A Terrible Myth Take. Kurt follows his younger brother through a rabbit hole that transports them into a primitive, alternate reality. Unable to return home, Kurt takes up the sword and tries to sort out whether he is the Chosen One. If he is, perhaps he can defeat the evil wizard and save eight interlinked worlds from disaster. Unfortunately, his quest bears little resemblance to any of the myths he knows or the epic movies he has seen. The Unicorn Dilemma. The forest dragon likes the crunchy flavor of knights after they have been flame roasted inside their armor. Perhaps a unicorn can sway the dragon's tastes to something more eclectic.
