Child of the Orb — Terry Morris

A magical orb. A two-hundred-year prophecy destined to change everything. And three squabbling siblings.

When a seven-foot Enchanter and his three-inch sidekick arrive at the front door, Casper, a scrawny little runt with a monstrous fart, his bossy sister Charlotte, and egghead brother Dexter discover they are wizards and that one of them, as foretold in a centuries-old prophecy, is the Child of the Orb and destined to become the most powerful wizard in the universe.

But first this oddball bunch of unlikely heroes must embark on a perilous journey to find the Orb that's been lost for two hundred years. Fail and the enchanted world will be lost forever.

This delightful fantasy tale is perfect for young readers and equally perfect for grown-ups too. Funny, scary, magical, and just a little bit smelly, the first book in the Wizard Island saga ends with a satisfying bang while leaving the door open for more adventures to come...
