Magic of Zdrell

It has been twelve hundred years since the demons and their allies destroyed the last zdrell master, the only kind of wizard who could challenge their mastery of the world. Master Silurian, though not a zdrell master himself, has been fighting demon magic all his considerable life and hoping against hope that a new zdrell master would enter the world. Now as the demons and their wizards are nearly ready take over the continent and cement their hold over the entire human race, Jonny is discovered by Silurian, a boy, who untutored is able to manipulate magic like the zdrell masters of old. Can Silurian train this boy and keep him alive long enough for him to become a new zdrell master before the demons sweep the continent and gain control of the entire world?

Eril, new journeyman wizard in the lost magic of Zdrell, has only three things he needs to do: Stay moving, stay anonymous, and learn to master of his magic. Unfortunately, Eril's just not very good at the stay anonymous bit, even though his life depends on it. Jelnick, Grand demon wizard, ruler of the continent of Grimor, and aspiring ruler of the entire planet of Klastra, has been working towards the domination of the continent of Skryla for hundreds of years. He is only a few short years from completing his plan, and now he has to deal with a new line-cutter artifact as well as a rumored Zdrell wizard. He will stop at nothing to see this threat to his plans eliminated, even if it means committing his charzen super-men prematurely to the search. Time is the last thing Jelnick and the demons want Eril to have as he continues to grow in power and brings back the legendary wonders of the Zdrell masters of old. If Eril fails, the inhabitants of Klastra will nothing more than demon fodder.
