5.0 out of 5 stars A fun and fantastic book!, October 13, 2003

This review is from: The WIZARDRY CONSULTED (Mass Market Paperback)

This is the fourth book is a series, following Wizard's Bane, Wizardry Compiled and the Wizardry Cursed. In this book, former hacker, and now wizard extraordinaire, Walter "Wiz" Zumwalt finds himself spirited away by a mighty dragon, and ordered to solve the problem between humans and dragons. Against his will, and against his better judgment, Wiz realizes that he needs to become a consultant. And so, with a store of buzzwords and knowledge of using misleading visual aids, Wiz sets out to find a way to reorganize the human-dragon organization!

This book is another example of Rick Cook's wonderful talent. Where Wizardry Cursed was somewhat dark and suspenseful, this book is light-hearted and humorous (think Dilbert thrust into the Lord of the Rings)! This is a fun and fantastic book, one that I highly recommend!

This is a great book, full of puns that programmers or IT people will understand and enjoy.

Wiz applies his programming knowledge to magic and the results are pretty hilarious!

I found the book different from the first 3 books. I still liked it because it added new characters, and revisited old ones. The plot was good, as was the writing.
