Free (Kindle) The Wizard in Waiting by Robert Don Hughes [High Fantasy w/Dragons]

ATDrake · 07-25-2016, 04:27 AM

The Wizard in Waiting by Robert Don Hughes (ISFDB, Wikipedia) is the 2nd novel in his Pelmen the Powershaper trilogy of traditionally epic high fantasy with strong draconic elements, this installment continuing the adventures of the series-titular powershaper to restore the usurped princess to her throne after defeating said dragon, free courtesy of publisher Endeavour Press' Venture imprint, who are e-printing it from its original 1982 Del Rey paperback edition.

Apparently, this is somewhat related to a previous freebie in a different series perhaps set in the same world at a different time, unless the author really has a thing for including two-headed dragons and powershapers in all his fantasy worlds: Wizard and Dragon

Currently free @ Amazon (available to Canadians & in the UK and pretty much everywhere else that Amazon sells worldwide, since this is being done via their KDP Select exclusive-or-else program)

Description
A new power is stirring…

The Imperial House of Chaomonous was awake again. For a thousand years, while the two-headed dragon barred magic from the Golden Kingdom, the castle had slept. But now the dragon is dead, and the castle has awoken…

The throne has been usurped by Queen Ligne, while the rightful heir, Princess Bronwynn, has been locked in the dungeons. And now — to make matters worse — brutal slaver Admon Faye has invaded its lower depths.

The realm of Lamath is in great tumult. But where is the powershaper, the wizard of ancient magic who could understand its warnings?

Only Pelmen, former Prophet of Lamath, has the ability to restore peace to the land. But he is far away, rehearsing a play to flatter the tyrannical Queen with a troupe of actors.

For the Imperial House and Princess Bronwynn, Pelmen may be the only hope left. But can he answer their prayers in time?

Meanwhile, prisoners of the vicious Queen are sent to the dungeon never return…

With Lamath on the brink of war, the former Prophet Pelmen is faced with his greatest challenge yet!

The Wizard in Waiting is the gripping second book in Robert Don Hughes’ Pelmen the Powershaper fantasy series.
