Description:

Corianne Birch has come out of retirement to prove once again that no hand is as adept as hers at dramatizing the adventures of Bouragner Felpz. Although when one’s subject is an immortal magician whose adventures involve giant eagles and magical wolves, arcane murders, dead gods, and otherworldly visitors, there is less need for dramatization and more for a steady, clear voice full of wit and humor—which Birch provides with assured skill. All who despaired of ever reading more tales of Felpz at the conclusion of Volume II must rejoice at this third installment, which presents three scintillating short novels published together for the first time. It also includes the special addition of an introduction written by Felpz himself, and a never-before-seen short story from a surprising new perspective.

The Adventures of Bouragner Felpz, Volume II: Anatomy of a Magician

  • Compare with Sherlock Holmes, The Chrestomanci Books, Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell
  • eBook available from: Amazon KindleNOOKKoboiTunes
  • Paperback available from: Amazon (US and Europe), direct from Create Space, and Barnes and Noble.

Description:

Twenty long years have passed for Corianne Birch since the disappearance of her friend and guardian, Bouragner Felpz. In that time she has married and divorced a husband, and born and raised a daughter. No longer the spritely, opinionated teenager who once trailed—if sometimes reluctantly—upon the purple coattails of that famous magician, she has matured into a staid, if no less opinionated, woman. So when a capricious fairy makes his home in a nearby park and begins enchanting the populace, and old friends from her adventuring years reappear, she is more than ready to re-enter the world of wonder, danger, and magic that once dominated her youth. Yet for all the excitement the fairy brings, he is but the harbinger of an even more magnificent event: the return of Bouragner Felpz himself!

This second volume of The Adventures of Bouragner Felpz collects twelve stories of dazzling magic and haunting wonder, as Corianne Birch returns to the biographical tales of her exceptional friend with all the wit, charm and vivacity that her teenage self ever had. Spanning almost forty years, this volume contains everything from haunted hills to legendary dragons, a rare glimpse into Felpz’s early days, and an exclusive introduction by the noted dracologist (and daughter of the narrator), Milain Clifford Birch.
