A wizard must protect Earth, his adopted home, from people who should not be here.
A man, haunted by the reoccurring nightmare of the loss of his wife, attempts to escape the anguish with a change of scenery. The Wizard Hovan, using his magic, moves to Earth. Someone followed. Or preceded him. Whichever, they do not want him on the planet. Or alive. The feeling is mutual. Dangers he is uniquely positioned to confront threaten the wizard on Earth and in his hometown of Forestton. This good man, capable of violence, must protect this magically vulnerable planet and his home. Someone has to. But first, he has to find them. Before they find him. He must protect his friends, human and elf, while also relying on them for help. Moving between worlds to fight this evil, the wizard attempts to mix magic and technology, humans and elves, and keep everyone safe. So much for escaping the memories. May the One he serves protect them.
This story is part epic fantasy and part magical realism, as it occurs on the parallel worlds of Ra'viinen and contemporary Earth.
