Book Description

July 1996
Trapped in a paralled universe, Dr. Marvin Brewster marshals his renegade nation of brigands, dragons, trolls, vampire elves, and the runesword Dwarfkabob to challenge evil wizard Warrick. Aware that he's the dastardly villain of a nonstop rollicking adventure romp, Warrick plays the role of destiny and changes the path of the ambivalent magician--while it's being written.


Editorial Reviews

Review

In an attempt to discover time travel, bumbling genius Dr. Marvin Brewster accidentally manages to transport himself to a parallel dimension where magic works -- with a twist. The shrubbery walks, the chamberpots talk, and the dragons are notorious gossips. To top it off, as Dr. Brewster struggles to find his way home, he finds himself in the middle of a separatist movement and a revolt. But getting home doesn't mean returning to safety. Once he gets back, Marvin must contend with a dark wizard who has been transported back to this world and, even more chilling, the fiancee Marvin left at the altar three times in a row -- and she's not amused! The Ambivalent Magician is imaginative and a real "page-turner" of a read! -- Midwest Book Review

4.0 out of 5 stars A crazy book that is the perfect ending to his series!, November 4, 1996
By A Customer
This review is from: The Ambivalent Magician (Paperback)

Hawke finishes off this zanny series of his by doing what I thought was impossible after the first two books--writing one even more crazy. Even if you missed the first two you will still have a lot of fun with this book and I guarantee it is like nothing you have ever read before.
