A year had passed since Ben Holiday bought the Magic Kingdom from the wizard Meeks, who had set a series of pitfalls against him. Ben survived, by the aid of three loyal friends: Questor Thews, an ill-trained wizard; Abernathy, a talking dog, the Court Scribe; and the lovely Willow, who sometimes had to be a tree.
But Ben had been troubled by dreams of disaster to his former partner, Miles Bennett. Yet when he returned to Earth, Ben found Miles doing splendidly.
Unknown to Ben, the dreams had been a trap by Meeks, who had returned to the Magic Kingdom as a tiny insect hidden in Ben's clothing. That first night back in Landover, Ben awoke to see Meeks gloating over him, claiming to have the medallion that could summon the mysterious knight-protector, the Paladin, and that he had cast a spell to switch appearances with Ben.
Ben found himself outcast, no longer recognized by any friend, though all his powerful enemies seemed to know him. Without the medallion, he couldn't seek the help of the Paladin against Meeks. There was only the prism cat - whatever that might be!
And where was Willow - and the mysterious black unicorn she'd set out to find?

I listened to book one in the Landover series and was on pins and needles waiting for the next book to come out. It was every bit as good as the first book. I just love the way his writing draws a picture in your mind and you can just see his words and imagine yourself watching this story. This is a definite must read if you like good clean fantasy books about mystical creatures.

I'm 29 and I think this book is great. It is the perfect balance between cutesy kid friendly, and suspenseful chaotic action that an adult readers love. If you are an avid reader who either has a young child that also likes to read or has a child you would like to see get interested in reading, then read this book together. You will both LOVE IT!
