The Wizard's Tale

The Wizard's Tale by Kurt Busiek 144 pp.

Bafflerog Rumplewhisker is an inept and kindhearted evil wizard who has been ordered to find the long lost Book of Worse. Once the book is found it will mean the end of all hope and light and freedom for everyone in the world. Bafflerog sets off on a quest with his enchanted toad, Gumpwort, and the son of a woodcutter who wants to be a king. Their journey may mean the end of everything. This is a dark story with unexpected humor and lightness. The artwork by David T. Wenzel is perfectly suited to a tale of wizards and magic. This is a fun book.
