"WYSARD is fantasy at its highest and most heartfelt. You won't find any dragons or elves here, but you will learn, as one of the book's characters puts it, that "the struggle of heart against mind, of self against world, is unending war to some; and there are greater struggles still, in which men render up their lives for reasons beyond love or hate." But WYSARD is a tale of adventure too, and the hero's quest soon becomes a journey not only of the spirit, but of the flesh as well, in all its passionate variety.
