| A Mythic Quest Through Seven Fantastical Worlds The Wizard Knight is a novel in two volumes that transcends the surface of fantasy, delving deep into the wellspring of myth. This masterful work breathes fresh life into the familiar features of the genre: magic swords, dragons, giants, quests, love, honor, and nobility. In The Knight, a teenage boy from America journeys into Mythgarthr, the middle realm of seven wondrous worlds. As Able navigates this fantastical land, he gains a new brother, an Aelf queen lover, a supernatural hound, and a fierce desire to prove his honor and become a true knight. In The Wizard, Able returns to Mythgathr as Sir Able of the High Heart, armed with new knowledge and magical secrets. He strives to fulfill his vows and restore balance among the denizens of all seven worlds. Gene Wolfe, hailed as "the greatest writer in the English language alive today" by Michael Swanwick, weaves a charming, riveting, and emotionally charged tale of wonders in this epic fantasy series. The Wizard Knight is the perfect introduction to the works of a writer Damon Knight called "a national treasure."
