So he read the runes-and found himself on a world where reciting poetry verses worked magic. His first effort got him locked in a dungeon by the evil sorcerer Malingo. Trying for light, he brought forth a fire-breathing, drunken dragon, who told him Princess Alisande, rightful ruler of Merovence, was also held in the dungeon.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eNaturally, he had to free her, himself, and the dragon, using poetry lifted from Shakespeare. And because she was young and beautiful, he swore to serve as her wizard. Then he learned that his job as wizard was to fix it so the three of them could overcome all the dark magic and armies of Malingo \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe addition to the party of a lust-witch and a priest who became a werewolf now and then didn't seem much help.

One of the pioneers of science fantasy, his career spans four decades, 44 novels (including translations into Czech, German, Italian, Russian, and Japanese), 29 short stories, and seven 7 anthologies. His novels are famous for their humor (and bad puns), exploration of comparative political systems, and philosophical undertones. He has always had difficulty distinguishing fantasy from reality and has tried to compensate by teaching college. When teaching proved too real, he gave it up in favor of writing full time. He tends to pre-script his life, but can't understand why other people never get their lines right. This causes a fair amount of misunderstanding with his wife and four children. He writes novels because it's the only way he can be the director, the designer, and all the actors too.","brand":"Stasheff Literary Enterprises","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50377008775442,"sku":"9781734200027","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/4771\/8930\/files\/img_d373fb5d-161e-4049-9e95-1173fc37e699.jpg?v=1728613791","url":"https:\/\/surprise-castle.myshopify.com\/products\/her-majestys-wizard-9781734200027","provider":"Surprise Castle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
