Customer Reviews

Worth reading, nice start the whole adventure

The start of the series, this has a good plot and characters. I'd call this fun and relaxing fantasy. Worth reading at least once and likely will make you want to read the whole series.

Excellent First Outing For Magnus

While the first outing for Magnus holds the same wit and humor as the Warlock series, there are times when it is seen that a new series is being brought to life. Finding himself on a world very much like Renaissance Italy, Magnus takes a guise that will become well know to readers of the later books in this series, Gar Pike. 'Renasissance Italy' finds itself at war, where those left of the former government are fighting each other as their world plunges further into the dark ages. While attempting to help bring peace to this world, as well as a new stable government Magnus (Gar) is also faced with a personal problem. A shadow from his past out to destroy him. While perhaps the setting up of Magnus on his own leaves the reader feeling out of place with a character that had become regular in the 'Warlock' series, 'A Wizard In Mind,' is still one not to be missed. The introduction of Magnus as both 'Gar' and the 'Rouge Wizard' in his own right helps to establish a little better the character for later stories. However I still encourage you to read 'A Wizard in Absentia' as well to gain more insight to the longing that sometimes fills Magnus and why he seems to continually desire and yet fear relationships with women. Be sure not to miss Any of Stasheff's books, including 'A Wizard In Mind.'
