About this series
Their hero is a fraud and only he knows it. When the truth comes knocking, can one boy conjure a way to save the day?
Young Samual longs to perform magic of his own. What's worse, he can't seem to convince anyone that their beloved Town Magician is a trickster without an enchanted bone in his body. When a wicked wizard challenges the pretender to a duel, Samual vows to keep his village safe by forcing the fraudster to rise to the challenge.
Determined to prevent disaster, he secretly shadows the phony protector during his training with the Grand Wizard. And when they barely escape an vicious attack, Samual realizes he must partner with his bitter rival. But keeping the truth hidden any longer may not help them outwit a powerful sorcerer.
With his town in grave danger, can Samual protect the ones he loves from the forces of evil?

S.A. Schneider
Don't you wish you could have a lightsaber? And force powers - definitely force powers. Someone cuts in front of you in line - force choke. Take that line-cutter. Oh, wait - how about spider powers? Shooting web lines and clinging to walls. What do you mean I can't get in here, just watch me. And, hey you, Mr. line-cutter - phwip, phwip - get out of the way. <sigh>OK, so we can't have those. At least to the best of my knowledge. What's the next best thing? Creating worlds and stories to do whatever you want. I guess I'll have to settle for that and hopefully you'd like to come along for the ride. I live and grew up in a rural area in Ohio. That left a lot of room for reading. I now live with my family and hope to enrich somebody's life with some of my stories. For now, I have to visit another world ... wish I could tell you which one at the moment. :)
