Synopsis

The story of Gumluck continues! From New York Times bestselling author Adam Rex, this acclaimed, laugh-out-loud series is perfect for young fans of magic, wizardry, and the special alchemy of friendship. A hero fights for what is right! A hero's aim is true! Is the hero of this story like that? I don't know. He is the kind of person who might turn you into a donut if he's thinking too hard about donuts. His name is Gumluck the Wizard, and he is on a Quest. Along the way he'll discover singing goblins, unicorn magic, a possible ostrich that breathes definite fire, and three companions who are pretty sure they're heroes already. With a lighthearted mix of fantasy and fairytale elements, this third installment in the chapter book series starring Gumluck the Wizard is a hilarious tale for the reluctant hero in all of us. JUST RIGHT FOR NEW READERS: With simple sentences and big themes explored with humor and heart, this series is the perfect choice for newly independent readers who love magical tales. DYNAMIC DUO: This hapless wizard and his lovingly critical friend Helvetica the Raven are memorable characters young readers will love rooting for.

Very excited to get our hands on the third Gumluck book after a delightful Instagram ad “campaign” by Adam Rex (it wasn’t a ton of posts, but the right amount to get our son excited for the release). Definitely dealing with some slightly aged up themes around bullying and the narrow-mindedness that......more

Very sweet! This time the Gumluck will go on a quest with other heroes, like D&D but knowing Gumluck as we do, we know that he won't let magical animals get caught, or hurt for the wrong reasons. This one has a lot of great characters and they even go to a Goblin Castle. We laughed a lot when Gumluc......more

Goodreads review by Carrie on May 07, 2025

Another adorable story in the Gumluck series. This one had a great lesson for younger readers and I hope parents pick it up, along with the rest of the series. Gumluck is a true example of a hero and I think children could really use that story. Helvetica’s narration was great as always and I love t......more

In this third installment of the series, Gumluck and Butterscotch go questing with a warrior, elf, and raccoon in tow. Along the way, they discover the true meaning of the word 'hero'. There's unic......more
