But one Sunday, he is led into a cave which no one else can see, where he encounters a purple dragon called Howell who guides him through the cave to the land of Trymyll, here he meets a wizard. A proper and powerful wizard who does magic, real magic. But the magic is draining from Trymyll just as it has from our world, and there's an evil, misanthropic, and powerful wizard who wants to destroy the land of Trymyll and everyone in it.

The Wizard's Son a Novel, Vol. 3 of 3

Book Description
Excerpt from The Wizard's Son a Novel, Vol. 3 of 3 Was this then the conclusion of all things - that there was nothing so perfect that it was worth a mans while to struggle for it; that any officious interference with the recognised and existing was a mistake; that nothing was either the best or the worst, but all things mere degrees in a round of the comparative, in which a little more or a little less was of no importance, and the most strenuous efforts tended to failure as much as indifference? Walter, returning to the old house which was his field of battle, questioned himself thus, with a sense of despair not lessened by the deeper self-ridicule within him, which asked, was he then so anxious for the best, so ready to sacrifice his comfort for an ideal excellence? That he, of all men, should have this to do, and yet that, being done, it should be altogether ineffectual, was a sort of climax of clumsy mortal failure and hopelessness.

The Wonderful Wizard of Oz
Author: Frank L. BaumPublisher: Cosimo, Inc.

Pages : 312
Book Description
The Wonderful Wizard of Oz has been enchanting audiences since it was first published in 1900. While many fans may know the work only by its movie counterpart, the world L. Frank Baum built within the books is much more elaborate. Since the more recent publication of Gregory Maguire's Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West and the Broadway play of the same name, fans have had a rekindled interest in Baum's original works from which the retellings draw heavily. Anyone interested in fantasy, magic, and silliness is sure to love this American classic.L. Frank Baum (1856-1919) is one of the most recognized and beloved children's authors, though he is often recognized for only one of his many stories. The Wonderful Wizard of Oz is easily his most popular work, though Baum actually wrote 13 sequels in Oz. His writings consist of practically every genre: Baum wrote 55 novels in total, 82 short stories, more than 200 poems, as well as scripts, and other miscellaneous writings. Interestingly, many of his non-Oz works were published under pseudonyms. Baum made many attempts to bring his work to stage and screen, but the most successful productions were not made until after his death.
