Enchantment: Book 1

Herein lies the story, in part, of the all-wise Magician and the hidden, mystical forest where he lives while attending to those fantastic earthly, and otherworldly, matters that require his incomparable magic - be it ever illuminated with the unblemished light of inherent wisdom. Though not of this world but ascended from enlightened star-beings, indeed a divine race of sorcerers it is told, all-knowledge and supremacy is his for it would seem that he alone can mediate and solve the complexities, so often frailties, of the Universe. By great contrast his companions are the rustic 'forest folk' that share his magical kingdom along with elves, dwarves, ghosts, ghouls, and such other benign, or more malevolent, beings as are rightfully found in Fairyland. The ongoing tales of the great Magician are written in the rhyming, metrical style of classical poetry which enables the words and verses to flow rhythmically, indeed lyrically, across each page while providing a most pleasurable, be it rather unique, reading experience throughout all five cantos, comprising fifty poetic stories, contained in this Book 1. Enchantment tells of magic, mysteriously and magnificently crafted by the most adept of masters, while provoking those higher levels of (esoteric) thought along the way to where truth embraces illusion and fantasy blurs with reality - in a forest lit only by the subtle beam of a Star and where an old philosopher, by lantern light, follows the footsteps of Sophia, Spirit of Wisdom, and confidante of the all-wise Magician.
