Description
Beginning in the present volume, "The Knight", to be concluded in "The Wizard", "The Wizard Knight" is in the rare company of those works that spring from the myth and literature of past ages, not last year's genre fantasy series. A teenager passes from our world to a magical realm of seven worlds, where he is soon given the body of a mature man of heroic proportions. Forced to act as a man, inside he remains a boy, even as he sets off to find his destined sword and become a knight. His quest is filled with danger and adventure, giants, elves, and dragons - and a literally enchanting romance. "The Knight" is a thrilling, charming, emotionally-riveting tale of wonders, written with the stylistic clarity and beauty we have come to expect of Gene Wolfe at his best.
