    About this ebook

    Rian is my name, and I'm at the Fearful Fort for a reason. Saz just came along for the ride. He likes to get out and explore, same as the next shape-shifting wolf. I was glad for his company because the Fearful Fort belongs to Mortimer the Magician. He's bad, and he's also mad, which is even worse, especially when it comes to wizards. But no one ever promised me this job would be easy...
