A teenager passed from Earth to a magical realm of seven worlds, where he was soon given a hero's adult body and the name Able. Sir Able returns to the world of Mythgarthr following his fight with the dragon Grengarm. Twenty years older, Able has magical powers he has sworn not to use, in return for the hope of meeting his beloved Aelf queen.
Here is a work to rival the greatest fantasy of the last century, one truly in Tolkien's tradition. A novel in two volumes, "The Wizard Knight" is in the rare company of those works that spring from the myth and literature of past ages. A teenager passed from Earth to a magical realm of seven worlds, where he was soon given a hero's adult body and the name Able. Forced to act as a man, inside he remained a boy, even as he set off to find his destined sword and become a knight.

Twenty years older, with a unicorn steed named Cloud, Able has special magical powers he has sworn not to use, in return for the hope of meeting his beloved Aelf queen again.
