The Wizard's Statue — Debra Doyle; James D. MacDonald

Is this magic worth dying for?

Randal, a young wizard, begins a dangerous adventure when a dying man gives him a mysterious statue. The man's last request is that Randal give the statue to a mercenary named Dagon.

Randal soon discovers that the statue possesses great power, and that Dagon is not to be trusted.

But the mercenary is not the only one who wants the statue. A warlord, a wizard, and many others in the strange walled city of Widsegard are after Randal and his friends.

What's more, the statue's power seems to be growing. Can Randal find a safe place for it, before its magic destroys him?
