Description
A new power is stirring…
The Imperial House of Chaomonous was awake again. For a thousand years, while the two-headed dragon barred magic from the Golden Kingdom, the castle had slept. But now the dragon is dead, and the castle has awoken…
The throne has been usurped by Queen Ligne, while the rightful heir, Princess Bronwynn, has been locked in the dungeons. And now — to make matters worse — brutal slaver Admon Faye has invaded its lower depths.
The realm of Lamath is in great tumult. But where is the powershaper, the wizard of ancient magic who could understand its warnings?
Only Pelmen, former Prophet of Lamath, has the ability to restore peace to the land. But he is far away, rehearsing a play to flatter the tyrannical Queen with a troupe of actors.
For the Imperial House and Princess Bronwynn, Pelmen may be the only hope left. But can he answer their prayers in time?
Meanwhile, prisoners of the vicious Queen are sent to the dungeon never return…
With Lamath on the brink of war, the former Prophet Pelmen is faced with his greatest challenge yet!
The Wizard in Waiting is the gripping second book in Robert Don Hughes’ Pelmen the Powershaper fantasy series.
