To save his wizard mentor, a spellsinger--and his otter sidekick--must
cross time and space, in this novel by the #1 New York
Times-bestselling author.
Jon-Tom and his friends have seen better days. After his motley crew
moved heaven and Earth to save civilization at the battle of Jo-Troom
Gate, his merry band went its separate ways. Mudge, the foul-mouthed
otter, eagerly returned to thieving, drinking, and whoring, while Talea,
the girl of Jon-Tom's dreams, embarked on her own adventures, leaving
him to study magic with Clothahump, the irascible wizard whose inept
spell trapped him in this weird otherworld in the first place. But now
Clothahump is dying, and not even Jon-Tom's spellsinging can make him
well. In search of medicine for the centuries-old turtle, he and Mudge
venture across the seas on a dubious quest that will require the
assistance of an Amazonian white tiger, a ferret, and a
gender-challenged unicorn. They're going to need all the help they can
get.
