Endor the Wizard

Book One of a delightful and heartwarming trilogy about the Wizard Endor as he travels throughout the mythical kingdom of Greysmire with two friends, solving problems and fighting evil at every turn. Brilliant, wise, kind, respectful and beloved, this wizard wins the hearts of young and old alike. Only the bad guys fear him!! Author John Garland created this unique fantasy fiction with a bit of a twist: he infused his hero with a kind heart and incorporated an underlying message that tenderness must never be mistaken for weakness … even in battle.

“My target audience is young adults with family – although the trilogy is a great read for fantasy fiction lovers of all ages,” says Garland. “I wanted to create an idealistic world which can be used to show that by helping each other to achieve our goals in life is an ideal way to live. The true hero is someone with a good heart.”

Garland sets the stage for the first book, Endor the Wizard, in the country of Greysmire as Endor, his two faithful companions, TK the owl and BW the mouse, and the good townspeople attempt to live in harmony and work together to build an abundant and thankful life. Yet, they are thwarted at every turn by the people of Crindeland who are governed by the evil lord Gundermire. Endor relies on his wits to help his people combat Gundermire’s evil influences once and for all.

The remaining books include: Endor's Adventures that takes Endor and his companions to the neighboring country of Dame whose people also face their share of trouble by the evil lord Gundermire. They must join forces in order to battle the fierce might of Gundermire's armies and defeat this wicked soul. Endor must learn what he can about the people and their head wizard if they are to be successful. When war breaks out, they must be ready.

The final book: Endor: The Final Chapter takes the trio into the heart of war with Crindeland and the open confrontation with Lord Gundermire. Through the harshness of battle Endor still finds ways to bring about his good nature upon all those who need him. He and Erg, Dame's head wizard, must find a way to confront Gundermire on his own grounds and in his own castle guarded by huge dragons. It will take working together and using everything they have to defeat this most wicked of all creatures. Expect the unexpected!
