When student wizard Phadrig tries his best to master his magical talents, he finds his best doesn't make for a very good wizard. When he tries his hand at tracking down a lost pet or a missing person, he finds he may just have some talent after all.
The City Watch finds themselves faced with a mysterious string of crimes in the kingdom’s capital city. Drawn into consulting on cases along with his new assistant, Phadrig finds that the Watch’s new way of dealing with crime may have uncovered a threat to the very foundation of the kingdom itself.
It may be that the kingdom’s best hope is a very bad wizard.
Very Bad Wizard is just a very bad book. Annoying and frankly uninteresting MC, way too much techno babble involved in the magical concepts and all around lack of a good storyline. Not recommended.
I loved it! I can hardly wait for the sequel! This is great indie fantasy that isn’t the same old stuff that so often seems like a bad copy of a bad copy of someone’s bad imitation of The Hobbit. This felt fun and fresh.
I thought the story was a little slow at the beginning, but I really enjoyed the journey. Cant wait for the next book. The characters were interesting and I enjoyed watching them evolve.
This was about as bad of a disc world ripoff as could be possible. Not a nod to sir Terry but an ill conceived and poorly written pile of dragon crap. NO !
