About the Book
Wizardry sure isn't what it used to be. Spells don't seem as potent, and there's been a general decline in quality of wizards practicing the craft. But when the Wizards' Guild votes to open its meetings to alchemists — as far as Kedrigern is concerned, that's the last straw.
Leaving the Guild meeting in a snit, Kedrigern — master magician and purveyor of counterspells — bids adieu to his conjuring comrads to pursue a life of quiet contemplation and study. However, he soon finds just how lonely such a life can be — even with a helpful house-troll named Spot for company.
What's a 160-year-old bachelor to do? The social scene on Silent Thunder Mountain is in the pits. And Kedrigern is decidedly too young to even contemplate marriage — by wizardly standards, of course. It's not until after much thought that that our humble hero resolves himself to marriage... and so begins his quest for a bride. But will Kedrigern rush into wedlock with the first enchanted princess who speaks up?
