The Wizards of Once #2: Twice Magic

Dark magic is sweeping the globe. Trouble is, who’ll stop it now that Xar and Wish can’t? When dark magic rises, smart folk run away. But if you run towards it, it’s time to get moving! Witches are creating havoc in the Wildwoods. Danger lurks behind every tree trunk. So what are our heroes going to do about it? Wish is armed with a powerful Magic Spelling Book. Xar has a dangerous Witchstain on his hand. The trouble is, they’re separated by a monstrously high wall. This Wizard boy and this Warrior girl should never have met even once. What are the chances that they could save the world TWICE?
