The Dangerous Passage (2 of 4)

By Brandon Scott Fox

When the High Order of magic needs an artifact—which has become the target of the Dark Lords—transported to a hidden temple across the country, elderly wizard Astor is called unto duty.

However, after being teamed with two young magicians fresh out of the underground Academy of Sorcery, Alchemy, and All Things Magic this unlikely party faces a slew of terrible villains set out to stop them dead in their tracks--hoping to steal the relic for themselves. These agents of the Dark, known simply as the 'Touchers', will stop at nothing to retrieve the magical item, which shall sway the pendulum of good versus evil forever.

Do an over-the-hill wizard, an inexperienced girl, and a young boy have what it takes to fend off the forced of the Dark? Or will the villains of the world succeed in their task of claiming the missing piece to their puzzle, and complete their domination in the art of magic....

"It’s perfect!"

Race Williams came spinning out of the dressing room, her new shy-pink dress twirling around her body like a fan.

The old red ribbons in her hair were replaced with longer black ones.

She pinwheeled in next to Chick and Astor.

How do you like it? arms akimbo, her weight on one leg.
