WHEN YOUR FATHER'S A HIGH-TECH WARLOCK, THERE'S ONLY ONE WAY TO GROW UP -- THE HARD WAY. Even the son of a warlock gets restless sometimes.

WHEN YOUR FATHER'S A HIGH-TECH WARLOCK, THERE'S ONLY ONE WAY TO GROW UP -- THE HARD WAY. Even the son of a warlock gets restless sometimes. And when Magnus sets off to see the world (and get out of his father's shadow), his dad, Rod Gallowglass, and his robot horse, Fess, can't resist trailing behind. Someone's got to protect young Magnus from peril-to his body AND his heart. First running afoul of a vindictive old witch with a lustful eye, then getting caught up in the intrigue of a small, isolated village dominated by a harsh theocracy, the Warlock's son is forced to fall back on his inexperienced diplomatic and espionage skills rather than his magical or martial talents. But Magus is most vulnerable to the hazards of love and sex. From bored noblewomen (with jealous husbands) looking for a new boy toy, to exotic faeries wanting to spirit him away to Tir Chlis, to normal (but beautiful) mortals seeking to use him rather than love him, Magnus faces threats no parent can shield him from. Despite his dad's best intentions, when Magnus is faced with the worst dangers and responsibilities of growing up, he's on his own.

Autorenporträt
Christopher Stasheff (1944-2018) was a teacher, thespian, techie, and author of science fiction & fantasy novels. One of the pioneers of "science fantasy," his career spaned 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. Chris died in 2018 from Parkinson's Disease. He will be remembered by his friends, family, fans, and students for his kind and gentle nature, and for his witty sense of humor. His terrible puns, however, will be forgotten as soon as humanly possible.
