A novel by Phillip Drayer Duncan
"Not since the feud between the Hatfields and Mccoys, has anyone made a bunch of hillbillies interesting, and that’s just what Phillip Duncan did with Moonshine Wizard." -- Jason Fedora, The Truth of Betrayal
Magic and moonshine.
Waylon ‘Bert’ Drake is a wizard and a moonshiner. Neither pays well, but he gets by doing the occasional odd job or selling a jar.
Growing up learning magic, he dreamed of the day he and his wizard buddies would save the world. But his friends all grew up. Bert didn’t, and there’s not much world to save in the quiet Ozarks.
That all changes when a dark wizard shows up and makes a simple threat: Bert will find a mysterious object for him, or the sorcerer will kill Bert and everyone he cares about.
Only, this prick isn’t the only one after the treasure. Several other dark entities want the same thing… And for some reason, they all got it in their heads that Bert should find it for them.
If that ain’t bad enough, none of these jerk wads seem to know exactly what the object is. But the threat is the same: find it for us, or we’ll kill everyone you love.Bert and his talking sword are in a race against time to find this mysterious trinket, and then figure out what the heck to do with it. All while trying not to drag his friends into the mess or get caught by the local Hand of Magic goons, who’d love nothing more than to put him down, if they can prove he’s gone rogue.
And of course, he’ll have to contend with a pile of dark wizards, flea-ridden were-critters, suck-heads, mage killing assassins, and a group of beings darker than anything he could imagine.
But Waylon ‘Bert’ Drake will do whatever it takes to protect the people he cares about, even if that means condemning himself.
It’s all or nothing for the Moonshine Wizard.
"Witty, action-packed, and never one to shy away from the unexpected. Phillip Drayer Duncan is not to be missed." -- J.H. Fleming, Rhythms of Magic
Genre: Urban Fantasy
